My welds probably won't be that great. Thom at GodSpeed here in my town opens his shop every Tuesday night to train people on equipment and processes. He has been working with me on fusion welding with Tig and metal finishing the joint back smooth with a hammer and dolly. I practice at home with a bunch of cutoff pieces so that when I get to the actual car it won't look horrible.... but it probably will.

Have you started a build thread on the 54 ??

PS, like greg mentioned - I use a 1/16 tungsten, set my machine to the minimum to melt the materials and then pulse weld with the pedal. That way I have plenty of pedal movement without melting it onto the floor...
