fwiw, you can use silver-solder to join Aluminium successfully. I actually just gave a course in Japan on using Durafix which is a type of Aluminium Solder for want of a better description.

You can find durafix on ebay or somewhere. I made some Aluminium computer-cases https://forum.makehackvoid.com/t/diy...-projects/1171 just to show that it can be done.

It requires inexpensive tools like a propane burner to heat the base metal.
