Does your remark include repairs on a welded, multichine hull, of 6, 8
and 12 mm AlMg 4,5 Mn ? If so what wouldin your opinion be the best
way to repair say a hole of 10" diameter ?
I'm told TIG welding is perfectly suited for these kinds of repairs
and would not leave weakened areas behind. Am I being lied to ?

As a matter of fact I'm thinking of take a TIG welding course and take
a rel small welding machine with me.
Am I overlooking other methods ?

Len.
