This is prior to welding. It took several vises and clamps at various places and often repositioning to get this in right. In fact, I had to trim off about 1/8" from the lower most bottom piece that buts to the longitudinal seem or else it would have never fit right. It took a bit of hammering too.

Turn the heat up alittle so you get more penetration on the welds. Use a smaller bit if you are going to do spot weld lookalikes, the holes can be 1/4" and then fill em up witha good weld.
Upside down, hmmm, wear good thick clothes and gloves as the hot slag burns pretty good when it runs down your sleaves. Geoff |
