I used a 110V Campbell Hausfeld Mig welder, it's not ideal but for the thin sheet steel it definitely gets the job done. I welded a fair amount at a time and had no problems with warping, I ran into my hand melting from the radiating heat or cramping from the position I was in before it damaged the metal structure. Be sure to tack weld everything in before welding long lines or else things will shift on you. If it's all tacked in it shouldn't be able to move.
