I used to be good. I don't know where I am now, but last time I did it there was a 10 years gap and picked it up like riding a bike. All of this project should be mild steel. My TIG welder is just a DC pulse type.

Back in the day I welded many different alloys, high carbon, stainless, inconel, monel, etc. I never got the knack for aluminum though. My weak spot. I'm sure I will need some practice.
