Yes... I have done plenty of butt welds in my day. Also worked as a glazier for 10 years. 6 years of that employed at one of the largest glazing companies in the midwest. If anyone is interested in seeing some of my work please feel free to look here http://www.yourascent.com/the-view/p...px?section=All. This building was designed by Daniel Libeskind, a world renowned architect known for his ground breaking asymmetrical buildings which seem to defy gravity. He was also chosen as the lead architect with the design of the monumental new World Trade Center Project. Me and my brother welded frames attached to structural tubed steel for every high end balcony on this condo and hand set every panel all the way up to the 27th floor penthouse.
