 welding x-brace ok?
A friend bought me a welding mask, so I'm going to learn how to weld. For my forest road usage, I'd like to weld some aluminum or steel plate into the openings on the x-brace, with space for the drain plug. Is there a downside to this as far as making the brace too stiff; does there need to be a little give in it? Thanks for any input. |
