No welding machine has been used in this video. Material used is a piece of iron, two nuts, a threaded rod and a socket from a ratchet wrench set.
Pushing back the brake piston is difficult to do by hand. And prying with a tool will only damage the brake piston. The brake piston should be pushed in or turned in evenly slowly. This piece of homemade tool can help with that.
Do you have a C-clamp? That will work as well. But if you don't have one...
In some ways you have to make your own tools. This brake caliper piston press tool is one of them. Yes you can go to the shop and buy a Brake Pad Spreader for about $10. But you can make your own to compress the brake piston. It doesn't have to look perfect. Save some money and use some scrap metal to fix it. Have fun with homemade tools!
