Can you use a spot welder as a power source for a smaller set of jaws that
you fabricate yourself? I'd like to get an old and/or cheap spot welder
and make jaws for it that are about the size of a pair of pliers for
joining
wires together.

There is no doubt that you can build a mini spotwelder. I've made one
when I was in the automotive starter repair business. If the wires are
copper, it is really easy. With copper wires, you can sandwitch a small
thin sheet of silver solder between the calmped wires. The heat from the
welder current will melt solder.
