Made a start on welding the back piece on.
Tacked it first then welded the front piece. What a surprise "don't look too bad"
In fact I thought it was quite good for me
........................ Humor me!

Looking good Dave. There is that enough humour for the day.
Nothing wrong with that at all.

Happy birthday Dave!
Looking good and looks like it is all set up for destructive testing of your welds? It's not often that you see people go to such extremes outside of the commercial environment

The yellow/orange bit is a block 25mm thick x 100mm x 80mm ................................................................................... and I can't !@#$#@%$ find it
No where.............................. what a nuisance ........................ looked all day.
I found the piece I cut off but it is only 100 x 60. I must have put it somewhere safe so I wouldn't lose it
