Big, you are right!

I just need a lot more experience. Luckily (or unluckily) I have two of these trucks to work on, so I'm going to get "some" experience. I don't think I've built up enough heat in the corner to cause any deformity, although I have one more rear corner to do, so knock on wood. Then I start on doors, fenders, bed sides, etc. That is when I'm worried about fit and deformity. So I'm stressing a little right now.

I keep putting off anything that scares me until I can't stand it and then I do it. Like the dash. Getting the old one out of the cab without damaging the cab was very stressful. It's now out without damaging the cab, now welding the "better" one back in will be a new test of what I've learned.

It's a good thing I'm enjoying the learning, because it's coming at me like a freight train.
