So I tried welding my first patch panel with zero gap (.023 mig with C25). Alignment was pretty much perfect. But even going as slow as I did...meaning like a few tacks whenever I could get to it over a few days - It seems the seam buckled in a bit.
I did hammer and dolly mostly all of the tacks a little. I dont think it could of possibly been 100% heat induced as I never did more than a few tacks several inches apart from each other before letting it cool.
I will post pics later tonight - but since solid mig wire (er70 is it) is so hard to hammer - is there any chance at saving this preventing the use of a bunch of filler? I am nervous I am going to just stretch all the surrounding metal and make it worse.
