I need to sell some stuff to build up the paypal account again. Anybody need some used sailing gear? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Scotty,

Hope you don't mind some questions about your work. Not meant to be critical - just trying to learn from your vast experience.

First, what type of welder are you using to get such nice "puddles" on thin material (pic-1) or welding on this thin channel without burning through?

Also, do you go back and weld in small cavities (right side of pic3) or save them for finish filler and primer?

Thanks for the insight and keep up the great job.

Miller 140 MIG for most of the welding and as far as the little crater on the outside of the weld goes, primer and a touch of filler does the deed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Love the progress. More pics as they come, please.

Scotty, I know you replaced the exterior corner after you cut this out. What did you do about the crusty skin behind it--the outside of the trunk wall? I presume wire brush, ospho, etc...but were there no pin holes?

Do you seam seal the back side of those welds or not worry about it since it's painted?
