Abstract: A drawn arc welding system includes a weld gun having a stepper motor, a power inverter module configured to receive a single-phase power input and output welding power to the weld gun, and a control module having a stepper motor driver, a user interface, and a controller in communication with the stepper motor driver, the user interface, and the power inverter module. The controller is configured to receive a current for the welding power from the user interface, and instruct the power inverter module to output the current to the weld gun.

Abstract: A light module projects multiple light beams onto an installation surface to form multiple light indicia spaced apart in a pattern on the installation surface, with the light indicia identifying installation locations on the installation surface where construction mounts are then installed. Embodiments include systems in which the light module includes a light emitter that projects a source light beam and a diffractor that diffuses the source light beam into the multiple light beams, systems in which the light module is adjustably mounted to and movable with a handheld tool used to install the construction mounts, systems in which the light module is adjustably mounted to a static-use support, and methods of using these systems to install the construction mounts.
