It really depends where you sign up and what they teach. we do it all. even show the occasional fuch weld repair, and mag case repair
MB911, I have a couple of questions for you on Mag Case welding, I'll send you a PM.

Chris, I have built several roll cages, swaybar strut-bars, and even a full tubular chassis using a Lincoln Tig 225. If you want good solid welds that penetrate your material and form a good structural weld, I would use Tig and fill rod. I tried using my Mig welder on the tubular chassis, but getting the inside tight spots was tough, with the Tig, it worked beautifully. What I really love about Tig welding rollbars and the sort it being able to "beehive" the weld with out it getting ugly. Hmm, is it time for a welding get-together? (Just kidding)

Just my .02 worth.
