Stop in for a cup of coffee

I had to weld up a pontoon boat part for a guy yesterday. Finely crafted extruded "Aluminum type" substance. The Chinese guys added some kind of alloy to make it more malleable for extrusion. Rendered it on the edge of unweldable. Closer to pot metal than actual aluminum. Kind of like some of the old AMF Harley parts from back in the day. Customer was drunk and ran into his dock with the awning up. It was a total PITA. Good morning all.
