Re: My 54

Raven, you already know what I'm learning. I thank you for sharing because I as I said, I am trying to learn.

This is the most welding and finishing I have done on sheet metal, but I have not used a flap disc on my body work.

I start by knocking the tops of the welds off with a grinding wheel on a 4 1/2" grinder and then go to a 3" die grinder with 36 grit and then to 60 grit to try and get just the weld. I'm trying to avoid taking any sheet metal.
