Hey BobMac,  
I am finally getting some success welding 16 and 18 guage SS.  
Only ~25% success with the MIG flux core 308L. No-gas.  
But now 75% success with; believe-it-or-not; 308L stick welding.  
When I get better, I’ll show photos.  
For now view theses two encouraging videos:

Now I know TIG would be the best. At the highest cost. Special tungsten’s. Special gas.  
Dual shielded (w/gas) MIG be nearly as good. Super special tri-mix helium gas.  
I’d rather spend my money on the actual SS gasifier housings material than welding pretty, “best”.  
I’m a good’nuff guy.
