Thanks for the reply-  What I have been contemplating is a battery welder like a Sunkko 709A  which is used for spot welding battery strips to battery posts to make battery packs.  Not sure if the tinplate is too thick though for the machine. But two hundred dollars seems a reasonable price to be able to repair tinplate if a battery welder would work.
