Mig welder

He said I had the wrong tool for the job.

You should be able to do just fine with a flux core welder, although it is a bit messy with the splatter.

I bought this one off of Craig's List for a 100 bucks and the guy had the gas kit with it. If your welder has the option to add the gas kit, I would do so. Much cleaner and easier to use, IMO.
