Thanks Guys!!

Brought home my stud gun with a shrinking tip and used the slapping file and water.

I started with this.



Here it is close to being done. I thought I took another picture before filler. It was closer than this before I spread filler.



During the shrinking process had more low spots develope. I used the pins in conjunction with the shrinking process.



In hindsight I don't recommend this process of cutting and welding to reduce tension. Even taking my time it gave me fits. In this pic I ground the welds to see where I missed.



Ready for filler
