The principle of gas welding is to heat two pieces of metal to their melting point or very close to it using a gas flame, then perform an action that causes them to fuse together. This action is typically the addition of more metal, but some metals can be welded together by heating them to the point where they become plastic, then laying one atop the other and beating the heck out of them with a hammer until they fuse into one piece.
