Great progress, you must be very pleased so far.
Been chatting with Paul in Ada, OK today and getting step by step reports and his repairs made me realise, I have soooo much to learn still.

Gentlemen, thank you for the positive comments, they are really appreciated
In between work and other commitments I have managed a little progress this week. I have finished welding the corner, unfortunatley my rust went beyond the repair panel, leaving me a gap to fill.
I folded up a repair section which after a bit of tweaking ended up fitting pretty well (if I do say so myself
)
I got it (almost) tacked in place when I ran out of welding gas, I don't know why that should come as a surprise but it always does, I really should pay more attention to the gauge
But every cloud has a silver lining. I decided to use the spare time to tidy my garage and found this.
It's a Massey Fergusson (AGCO) tool box, a place I worked used to make them. It may come as no surprise but in the best Johnny Cash (One Piece at a Time) traditions these were at the top of everyones "take home" list. So much so that if we had to ship a batch of 100 we would make 125 just to make sure there was enough left over to ship
