[QUOTE="Shaugh, post: 431386, member: 19781"] The best alternative to welding would be to cut 2 plates from aluminum sheet that are larger than the hole... 2" diameter circles would be big enough for a 1.5" hole. Drill a hole in the centers and rivet or bolt it into place over the hole on each side, with large dollop of 5200 in between so that it squeezes out all around and fills the gap. That would never fall out and 5200 would hold it watertight nearly forever. [/QUOTE]
