Hi Deve, I think that in patch panel repairs, you should use the lowest power seting and just slowly build up a series of spot welds in rotation, allowing each series to cool fully before doing the n

I think the main problem is the distance of the spot welds that you tried to connect. I assume this is a but weld. I start out perhaps 5 inches apart and then start going in-between until I end up w

It was a flanged weld that warped so badly. I flanged it and then left about a 1/8" gap so the weld could sit low in the seam making it easier to grind. The location is clear across the inside bottom

You got plenty of good suggestions Deve, but here's a couple more. When welding next to a previous tack, try starting the arc on the old tack and then "washing" the molten weld metal into the 18 gaug

You've been given great advice so far on how to do it better next time, this note tries a little twist on how to save it this time without a total re-do. First, warping is caused because the molecul

I've tried the torch-quench method of shinkage you describe, not on weld warpage but on stretched areas from large dents or on a oil canned roof or bed sides. While I've found it will shrink metal,
