To a certain extent that is self deprecation, and to some extent I know what a "pretty" weld should look like. I really don't think 48 inches of weld will fail catastrophically all at once without warning causing both jacks to suddenly fall off under load.
I am concerned my shade tree engineering may have been wrong and I may
have to cut them off and reweld them higher. LOL. We shall see. That

That's the sort of rework that convinced me to not do things I couldn't undo. To remind myself to at least think twice I put a pencil eraser on the end of my Xacto knife.
I've noticed very skilled machinists avoiding old fashioned freehand metal working like the plague, so I wrote that how-to in case you hesitate to try it. They left me those jobs, such as laying out and drilling hole patterns on sand castings.
Snag, Richard, Clare, Leon, Everybody... did I just read that right? Did he just call me a machinist?
I HAVE ARRIVED.
LOL
