This was my son's Power Wagon where I'd butt welded.. it was my first time and I thought I was doing it right but what I was doing was like the kind of work you would do on the outside of a car... Kinda..

^^^here you can see where I laid the patches in and drew a line around the edge of the patch and then came in from them and cut it out a couple inches short of where the patch reaches. you can't see the line because that's where I went ahead and ground off the paint for a good weld....

These were way faster as I just tacked them in nice and tightly and use my flap wheel to smooth them off and shield around the edges with a little goop and a shot of paint and bazinga!..

These were the patches that were $24 each and about $24 for shipping for both of them....
Those look really good. Nice job!!
Another question in the area that goes across the frame section would it be best to drill holes in the floor pan all the way across and weld it from the top or go under the car and weld it from the bottom? Or both?
