Re: top chop help

One thing I noticed, in what appears to be a very good job, is in the picture of the frenched antenna. It shows the welder's ground clamp attached to the door, while the work is being done on the cab corner. Don't do this. It forces the welding to get it's ground across the hinge pins. This is not only hard on the pins themselves (it can cause pitting from the arcing) but it could bite you if it momentarily lost ground because the door moved.
