I'm not looking for speculation or "yeah, I think they can", but rather a "yes, we had some aluminum welded."

Thanks in advance...
A Lincoln Electric TIG175 was in the machine shop at the SanJose
regional last year, and it is capable of welding Aluminum up to 1/8
inch thick. Welding thicker material would be problematic.
