    Is that laser welding or resistance welding? Looking at the sizeable copper pads that are fixed to the clamp jaws makes me think it’s resistance.
    When I was young and poor I learnt a trade, and after many years of hard work I’m not young anymore.

    I'm in agreement. Typically the laser welding has a visible beam and welding head.
    I wish the video had shown the other side of the tube joint, as laser welding wouldn't have done the back side.
