Just think, when your all done with this side, you'll only be half way It'll be nice when it's done though. It looks like your welder was a bit hot in a few spots or was the metal that thin ? Your daughter has an uh oh face if I've ever seen one what a doll, your so blessed!

Yeah, I had to crank the welder up to get it to actually weld into the rod. It would weld perfectly well to the roof, but it wouldn't penetrate into the round stock until I turned up the heat, it just built a little nugget of weld on top that would snap free with very little torque applied. I'll go back later and fill the few pin holes with the welder turned down. It sucks, but it had to be done.

That face is her "Seriously, you're taking a picture of this?" Lol. Light of my life, for sure, but also a serious test of my patience.
