I like to think that if I had a wheel, planisher, beader, tig..etc that I could do the same. But in reality I'd suck, you need years of practice to do work like that and doing one or two bikes a year isn't going to get me there.

I'm a low carbon steel kind of guy, I don't have any experience with welding aluminum and only little with ss. Can someone tell me what filler rod JJ is using to gas weld this tank?
