rich?
 
You can if its not mega important. Exhaust? I did a stainless scooby exhaust with normal mig gear and argon gas :)
There's a wire "309L" it will weld them together properly if its weight bearing etc :)
 
Or get a Tig attachment, then you can just use a stainless rod I've found, but with tig you have a more controlled weld pool so the different alloys blend better at the joint.
 
i steel stick-weld all my stainless pipes chris, the stainless will only tarnish but the steel welds will rust eventually (probably about 10 years on a 6mm weld slug)
here,s what they look like after about 1 yr of use :)

Man got to eat.. A lot more when Joe is here! He is like a human dustbin for food. Lol
I'm slightly more picky than a dustbin... slightly :p

Btw cv seems to be in solid but the split pins are spinning and rattling which may be most of the noise, easy fix tomorrow :)
Also really wierd but my exhaust sounds different now i can actually hear it lol
