Repairing rust/holes - sheet metal

[cam_123]

Hi Guys,

I have a few holes that need more than bog. What thickness should I use and where would I go to purchase?
Any tips would be great.

Cheers!

Bonnets are also handy.

Yeah get an old bonnet. Or any old Panel. Or if u wanna buy a sheet. It's just 1mm steel.

0.9 sheet is what i use, new stuff is alot nicer, easier to use, lots of wire speed, not to much amperage, and keep a damp cloth on hand to cool it down, not sopping wet, just wet enough to draw the heat out before the panel warps.
