I can just see a welder with his scuba gear on inside an argon filled booth and wiggling around that thing to weld it. I have seen a few ti o2 sensor bungs welded in MC pipes by filling tube and using plenty of shielding gas They were not this pretty. It is neat you weld it and its looks pretty then you start hearing ping-ping-ping and the thing falls off.
