I would weld it also but there was a build on here a while back where the guy used screws to attach all of the panels. He used a countersink bit and I believe it was a dome head screw and it turned out very nice.
I haven’t done it, or I would send a picture. But as long as you cover it on keep it out of the weather it will last a very long time. At which time you may not even be the one doing it unless you’re like me and keep almost every one you make.
Making memories!
