The weld on my gear fittings

Post by PoconoJohn »

I take everything to a local shop. They TIG welded the gear fittings. Here is both sides of one fitting. I know the plans say "Heavy weld", but maybe that's with gas welding? By the way, the one small hole is a pilot hole until the welding is complete.
