Also when you grind down your weld you have some weld left in the joint. Then i would recommend putting a gusset over the welded area. I know some don't but i feel more confortable knowing there is extra strength in the welded areas. Here is a pic of my gusset and underneath it is welded just like i explained. Good luck and feel free to ask any more questions if you have any.

This looks nice... you could also add some plug welds in the gusset body to take the load off the edges.
