Why not get some 2mm gouging rods and an arc welder?
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I have a 210amp Sip but never tried this although have done a fair bit of welding with it. Full power and a heavy rod you reckon?

Gouging rods are a specific rod that does not deposit any weld, it just seems to blow the metal away, I havent a clue how they work, but very
effective, if a little messy

Gouging rods
The ones we used to use were graphite coated with copper. They weren't available in anything that thin, I think the thinnest were 6 or 8mm
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

They sound like arc brazing rods.
Cheers, Rorty.
