Believe me I've warped my share of metal on this project,
. However on this, I'm using pretty thick metal (14 gauge I think) for the pieces I welded in. It may look like solid line of weld, but it is mostly a series of small tack welds. The thicker metal definitely helps. I did let it cool down a little after doing a series of tack welds. A 4" grinder and a rolox disc with 36 grit has been my best friend on this project,
.
