Arc Welding

I am assuming the construction is done before the pole shift. Your local rental store will have a gasoline powered trailer mounted welder that can be rented by the day and hauled behind a car to the site. Or, you can buy a used unit through looking in local news papers.

A person can teach themselves how to arc weld in less than an hour. I did so at age 11. Take some scrap iron for test learning. Pose welding rod close to the metal. Pull helmet down. Strike an arc like scratching a match. As soon as you hear a sound like frying of eggs and you can see the spark or arc - hold the rod in one place about 1/4 inch away from the base metal - now move the rod tip slowly toward your body keeping the arc formed. If you move too fast you get droplets - if you move the right speed and gently move the rod to the right and left a little it will melt into each of the two metals being bonded. If the final bead stands up on the metal then you didn't use enough amperage. If it puddles through then you used too much amperage. The rest you can learn by practice.

Don't under estimate the power of hurricane force winds and magnitude 9 earth quakes.
