Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3

I started filling the holes in my donor frame. I made these little buttons so I could TIG it for the most part without filler rod. It significantly reduced my tip dipping. I also don't like the idea of just piling MIG wire in there. I don't like grinding. Probably not how it's supposed to be done but it made it easy peasy. They took me about a minute to a minute and a half to make each. The bigger ones take longer because of the parting. There is going to be a lot of work done on these and I wanted uniformity in the steel. Thank you for your time.
