And then grind it down. The acetylene welding tomorrow should help it.

To be honest, it's a lot better than I would have expected. Hows the strength on it?

Not bad right now, but I'm a bit hesitant about putting too much on it. The left edge needs to be re-welded and the right edge (on to the head tube) needs some rework. The front axle and its support tube are the ones I separated and they've been put back together right, but no picture of that.

But I actually used a crappy school mig welder.
