Night time on Friday. Whew!

One thing I forgot to mention was that while I had the bedsides wide open, I went ahead and undercoated the stink out of them up inside just for good measure. When else would I have such a golden opportunity??? That's what the black spray is on the edges.

Mostly tacked back together now.

I used the orange straps to pull the parts together to get the tight spacing for a weld. You need about 1/16th space when butt welding for good penetration.---- Heh Heh, he said butt.
