What kind of inexpensive (relatively) welding device do I need?

I have steel burglar-bar doors onto which I want to tack some steel mesh and
turn the grate into a screen door (sorta - it's really to keep the cats in
instead of the bugs out).

In addition, who knows what future small welding jobs might come my way.

So, what's the best methodology, equipment, etc.?

Thanks.


Can't speak for the welder. A metal mesh can be installed with a few
rivets / screws on the door or gate. My side gate keeps my crazy hound
dog in the yard, but he can see out. HD sells some metal panels. Other
places for larger pieces.

Sample example:
