Hi Grant & Bob
I use odd bits of brass as well as copper as back up for but welds or for filling spots. Got some of those really heavy old brass kick plates from a school must be close to 1/8th thick. Make really good heat sinks if they are clamped tight behind a weld on thin sheet metal. Have a friend that uses wet toilet paper on either side when he is welding light gauge sheet metal. Same guy gas welds M151 back together with old coat hangers says it's the best match he has found for the grade steel used in the bodies, makes you wonder. Cheers Phil
