4) Completely weld in entire rod moving around and pacing yourself to reduce warpage
5) Fill in area with filler, using window edge of rod as your new defined line.
From what I've read, the drip rail should be removed 4" to 6" at a time and tacked as you go. This will keep the layers from separating.

Also if you look, the drip rail hangs below the window opening. Do you remove the whole rail or leave the back of the rail and weld round bar behind it?
