[QUOTE="ken2m, post: 361995, member: 7269"] Another good tip is that instead of a 300m (long welds in general) you are better off welding in 40mm sections with a break of at least 10mm, the reason is that if a long weld cracks it travels along the full length of the weld, with 40mm sections the weld cracks for 40mm then a new fresh weld takes the strain. The weld is well and truly strong enough with the tacks. If you need water tight joins use a sealant between the welds. Ken. [/QUOTE]
