get in touch with benross, the std clamps dont seal very well, he can modify them so they actually work.

Hey, I dunno if you're trying to be sarcastic, but everything you need to know is above.
If it wasn't possible to weld to it, why do you think I tell you to weld to it? It is VERY weldable - even with a junker Arc welder.

Because it was the best solution maybe? And I can't see what the problem is with it?
