But the correct answer - yes - is a bit longer.

Well, yes, you can weld stainless with gas. It just looks like dog turds
and doesn't have any strength due to the very large HAZ. The high
temperatures also kill the metallurgical properties of the chromium and
other alloys that make the "stainless" stainless.

You can also weld logs.
