I had a neighbor who was a professional welder for 30+ years come by and burn the frame together. I used lots of clamps to hold the frame in a straight line and come-alongs as well. I cross measured many times and used a four foot straight edge to make sure the frame was straight. After he welded the frame together, I made some fish plates to weld on the inside of the frame, over the welded section for extra strength.
