Thanks......If there are any tricks I don't know them! I'm not really a welder, I just pretend to be one in my garage.
I used a 120 volt Hobart 140 with shielded .030 wire, and #2 setting. The pieces that slip fit together welded up easy. the pieces that just butted together were tough, I kept blowing holes, but finally got it. If I had it to do over it I'd go with .024 wire, gas, and the lowest setting (#1). I tried welding the shielded .030 wire at the lowest setting but it wouldn't burn/melt.
