Preparation is easily 95% of a good weld. I try and try to explain that to my young gun welders and they just won’t listen, they are in such a hurry to get to next fixture. Good welders have learned how to prep the weld. Welding it is the easy part!

I prepared one Friday night before my apprenticeship welding class Saturday morning 70 miles away. Got pretty tuned up with the homeboys :lol:. Drive to San Berdoo at 6am next morning. Get to class hands shaking like a poodle pooping peach seeds :rolleyes:. I had been having trouble stick welding vertical, that Saturday one tap of the hammer slag falls off, stack of dimes underneath. Instructor comes in to check on me " I don't know what you're doing different, but keep it up. Looks great!" :lol:

It has always seemed to me that some of the better local welders are functioning drunks! I really should be a better welder!

So my dear wife had a conversation with public health. we have been deemed not a close contact. Guess we are off the hook. Thats a relief. If my wifes employer still wants her to isolate, we still will.
 
Man Chris almost made the most Chris level mistake ever. My quarter panel luckily is held on with Clecos and I was just finishing my final prep and trim and I decided to take it off one last time before tacking it on. Good thing I did because I’d forgotten to take the bracing I’d put in where the quarter window goes. Whew that would have sucked

They were in there when you left here here. I gave them to you with the scoops in a separate package. If you can’t find them, they are 1/4” 20 IIRC. You can just use 1/2” long bolts and washers if necessary. The studs are only about 1” total length as I remember.
