Ed,

Your sure you want OA? Why not MIG or TIG for welding?
I have access to all three and prefer to use MIG on steel (as its fast
and you don't go through the gas bottles like OA) and TIG
for every thing else. I use OA to remove bearings (ones
I don't want to re-use) and other heating purposes like softening up
loctited bolts.

A novice welder is far better off putting together his airplane using OA
rather than TIG or MIG. A google search will reveal that this has been
hashed out here many times in the past. Pay particular attention to
posts made by a guy called Highflier. I'm using TIG on my project, but
I am not a novice welder. No way would I use MIG for something I wanted
to fly in some day.
