			Hi All, I have really enjoyed lurking here and admiring the great talent on this forum. I thought it was time to join and get access to more sections, view pics and ask some of the experts a few questions. I am interested in learning metal shaping (aluminum in particular) and gas welding as well.

			Hello Justin, welcome to the forum. I show a little of the process of aluminium welding on my youtube footage. Its not a complicated process but it requires practice. If you can weld with oxy acetylene already it will not be too hard to learn to weld aluminium. David
