A weld kit is presented for use in creating a weld with limited access to a structure. The weld kit contains a back plate being a combination of a thermic material attached to a metallic material. Additionally, the weld kit has a lowering device secured to the back plate. A plurality of tacking nodes travel through both the thermic material and the metallic material of the back plate. The plurality of tacking nodes are operative to accept and distribute heat from a welding arc to create a tack weld at a location where at least one of the plurality of tacking nodes contacts a weld joint. The presented weld kit may be used to repair a damaged enclosed structure. Additionally, the presented weld kit may also be used to create an enclosed structure in a manufacture type environment.
