My first 3 turbo mani's were arc welded.
It takes longer to weld, but if it's the only thing you got..it will do the job

If you know what your doin you can make a stick weld as pritty as a tig or mig, it just takes much more practice. you should see my welding instructors welds, it looks like dimes laying on top of one another. But it is much harder on pipe welding, but for my stick welding cert. i had to do a 6g pipe weld on 4 inch pipe. sorta like stick the pipe at a 45 degree angle and work around it. no moveing the pipe. yeah but anyways i think it would be pritty easy to weld some smaller pipe just do about an inch at a time and get full penitration in one pass.
