Default Spot welding ques.

Can you use a regular ac buzz box welder as a spot welder for sheet
metal.I plan to make a clamp with copper alloy electrodes.Anything
special with the electrics on a commercial model spot welder?What would
be the amperage to spot weld 1 mm sheet metal if my idea has merit.
