Along the bottom, already had holes from drilling out the spot welds, so I plug welded the patch piece using those holes. I tried to stitch weld it on the bottom too, but I shouldn't have, since it looks like crap. Good thing no one will see my pigeon poop welding down there! Btw, this is the first time I've ever done any welding on sheetmetal. I quickly figured out I don't have the patience for it.... I will say the Brother's patch didn't need much trimming, since the rotten spot I had was pretty big. It was a pretty simple fix overall.

Adam thanks for the pics. I've been wanting to see a pic of the Brothers patch installed. That looks good. It'll do just fine for mine.
And Jim I appreciate your fab skills too. I just don't have the patience for it.
