It's the old "devil in the details".... and there's SO MUCH more to welding than just sticking two pieces of metal together.... But having done something for years -- and learning the Do's and Don'ts doesn't mean that we can all remember to tell somebody everything they've learned!
It took me awhile to learn that it's okay to use a hammer and tap the gap tight as I tack... because the gap opens just a little every time you put another tack in... and if you remember to tap the gaps tight - it makes for a LOT easier piece to weld and have it look good too!
