Re: ClusterTruck; because that’s what it is

As a helpful side note, during the fitting and welding the gaps don't always stay consistent. I keep that dremel tool handy and use the cut-off wheel on it to get the gaps opened back up. I prefer to creep up on the dimension of my patch so it doesn't turn out too small. I can always open up the welding gap if I need to. Closing up a too-large gap isn't much fun.
