Just took the computer hole weldment off my demoman to clean it up and the thing basically fell apart as all the weld joints are broken.

Curious if anyone does any welding that could help me out.

I have no idea what part you are referring to or if this is a solution, but an epoxy product like JB Weld works in a pinch for us non-MIG Welders.  Also there is a difference between; weld. spot weld. brazed. soldered. and I have seen perfectly good ramps that were utterly destroyed by application of the wrong technique in an attempt to repair them with a MIG welder.

It's likely stainless.  TIG would be the ticket.  I took my TZ scoop to a local machine shop and had them bulletproof it.  Took about 10 mins., and they didn't want a penny for it - I left 'em $20 for coffee - would have been cheap at twice the price.

If you have a little machine shop or custom fab shop locally, they will likely hook you up without issue.

Or just take it to any tradesperson shop (metal) and they can fix it for about $10.  I assume you don't know anyone who welds, as that would be my first suggestion.
