But I do know many older HP devices use magnesium rather than
aluminum. As to how to weld these materials, I'm no expert.
But I'd rather not hear that the machine, and the shop that attempted

Agreed :-) To be quite honest, although welding would be the neatest
solution short of finding a replacement chassis, I'd just buy a couple
of those L-shaped brackets used for reinforcing woodwork, and rivet
them onto the frame.
