I need some current limiting for my 16,800. watt transformer.  Will
choke 
transformers work in place of an Arc Welder?  I have a Lincoln welder I
can 
use but I found several very large choke transformers at the scrap yard 
today. The smallest one is wound with #6 square copper wire.  There are 
several of these large chokes. 3 small ones, 2 medium size and one large
one 
that probably weighs about 400 lbs.  Will these work for TC current
limiting?
