Dan:  Does the stud gun work "stand alone" with the welding or does it have to 
be hooked up to a welder, i.e., does it work with its own power source.  Never 
used one and have never seen one used, but all the body shop guys I have talked 
to swear by them.

them in so many ways to pull dents and shrink high spots as well  if you by

a high wattage soldering gun and stick the tip in the hole heat up the 
surrounding metal and fill with soder and then sand it down and then apply 
filler remember filler doesn't need to be more than a 1/4'' thick
