Scratch the idea of welding aluminum to steel, can't be done on our budget. I made a hold it up jig out of a couple of boards and screwed it to the wall above the siding for each plank of siding. One group of installers in my neighborhood drove in 2" finishing nails to set the next course of siding on, then pulled the nails out and put a dab of caulk in the hole. That seemed to work the best of all because the had a string level on the nails.
