I agree that if you have a certified welder around put him to work. Our welder is CERTIFIABLE, but we take care of him, 'cause he takes care of us!! I would like to learn to use a Tig welder someday, but I have no dillusions of being a welder.
I have two of them around there brothers there dad started as a black smith in the old country and became a awesume welder/fabicator here.
Both are extremly talented one specialise in aluminium welding/fabricating and the other works on big rig repairing weldable parts or fabricating/modifiying new parts8)

I have had two chassis shops tell me to just buy a CAC kit and they will install it, cheaper and still good quality:dontknow:
