The best I ever saw welding aluminum was friend of family in his 80's .
For rod he used a pocket knife and carved a thread aluminum. Then used torch and weld about 16 gauge aluminum. The best I ever saw. He did aluminum welding in WW2 for from 1942 till 1945. He retire in 1958 and past away riding a bicycle in over 100¡ã day at 99.
He welded was structural steel till 65.
He only welded aluminum for hobbies and models. Was great machinist but did not do machine work for a living
All he had was a old flat belt lathe a buss box and torch. He build fantastic engines
