Re: SkinnyG's '61 Apache
OA welding is definitely a skill to develop. I have done a lot of OA welding, brazing, and even aluminum welding with it. I also have a TIG, which is directly relatable to OA with the addition of a foot pedal to control your heat.
OA takes some discipline to learn, and a keep eye to watch where your heat is going. As fare as bodywork goes, I would recommend MIG if you have limited OA experience. It's just easier in many ways.
I think I'm just taking this on because it's "a better way to go." Masterable skill.
