I need to secure a boss made from aluminium rod into a hole made in the
wall of an aluminium tube. Of course welding would be ideal - but there's
little load on it. And I'm not sure I can be bothered finding an aluminium
welder. Unless I could do it myself with my MIG. Which I'm not much good
with on steel. ;-)
Car body filler? Epoxy? Any special precautions?

Provided there is no peel stress, epoxy gives an extremely strong bond.
Araldite always used aluminium to aluminium bonds as the standard against
which other bonds with their adhesive were compared on their data sheets.
