Only problem, I've never welded anything in my life. However I am a glutton for punishment and willing to try almost anything (making and astronomy related :0) ...)
Good luck with yours.
Luke.

Luke, Steve Bain made my Pier and had it delivered to me within a week, and I have waited a loooong time to try and getit on the ground. It is made out of Aluminium and the finish and quality of build is fantastic, just need to mount it in a permanent location (approval from the minister for work is extremely hard to obtain (SWMBO)
