You can use clecos for butt welding too. They are a bit of a pain as well.where the 2 parts butt together make a 1/2 hole on the edge of each part so when they fit together you have a full hole the size needed for the cleco. Use a small washer on the backside for the cleco to bite on. Magnets work well to keep the panels where you need them while you get the cleco set up.
