That last one is just a standard lathe - i assume he just winds it in by hand and uses judgement to stop the chuck at the right time.
makes me wonder what you could do with a hi speed power drill and a bottle jack!!!!!!
Much skill needed i suspect

I meant clamped - i wasnt planning on holding it!!!!!
I think it would burnout and fall to pieces before you completed a weld though!!

Ultrasonically. It must be a very fast process as you can't get lithium cells too hot. For prospective, Spot welding is the norm, as soldering is too slow.

That same process has been used for many years on a microscopic scale to weld fine wires between silicon chips and their external contact pins when maufacturing ICs.
