I've welded on golf carts most of my life but this dang sheet metal is tough! It's not forgiving either.

I'm getting better as I go but man you have to be careful are you blow a hole right through it.

I spoted in a piece on the inside and then cut another to sit flush with the outside and tacked it into place. I think it came out OK for never doing it before.
