At 59 yrs. old, I am just now learning how to weld & fabricate. and your video is a great inspiration. Your design is ingenious in the way that it is a simple and basic one. I have been trying to figure out how to add a spare tire mount to my trailer for months but didn't know where to start or how to do it. but you have shown me the way. This will be a great place for me to start. thanks for taking the time to post this video. the best part is the use of basic tools so I don't need to buy more tools to do it.
I used to work in a hydraulics/welding shop. The welder told me one time it doesn't really matter what the weld looks like, as long as you get good penetration it'll hold.
