It's easy to control. Arc won't work well with exhaust, you will end up with a bunch of holes, lots of splatter, and a huge mess. Gas welding will work but not recommended for a beginner. We usually use gas welder for hard to reach spots or filling holes.<br /><br />The best deal is to get a mig welder from home depot or Lowes. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
