You will all be happy to know that I purchased a used MIG/Flux wire welder. I put in some 0.035 flux core wire and bought some 16 gauge sheet metal. I then cut the metal to size, shaped it, and patched the hole. I'm all out of Bondo, but even so it looks pretty good as is...and it's safe! That 16 gauge steel is pretty strong and my welds are even stronger.
