Re: Patch panel welding advice needed

Well, finished 2nd round of welds. Was looking pretty good after grinding except one spot at the top of the weld. Went to touch it up and blew out a big hole. Filled it using copper backer, but you can see what a gob there is on the backside of the patch in 3rd pic. I think that I'll be cutting this patch out and re-patching a larger space as you guys have suggested.

I think I'll sleep on that for a bit though. This patch is the underside of the cab and maybe I'll decide this is good enough to cover up with undercoat
