Actually it's very easy, although I do welding for the brewing industry so I do it everyday so now it's easy.

Re:Turbo Saturn I built(pics)
Nice welds.
That's a damn fine job for being your first. |
Re:Turbo Saturn I built(pics)
damn I'm impressed with those welds! That manifold is pretty dope too..I like the angle in which it mates with the turbo. Did you take welding courses or just lots of practice?
Wanna weld me a custom downpipe?? ;D |

Re:Turbo Saturn I built(pics)
I'm a Tig welder by trade so I sort of know what I'm doing, here's a WG dump tube I made for my old Talon, it's 304SS mated to cast steel:
