Re: PO has me PO'd
Rusty metal cut out, now ready to weld new piece in
I prefer to use my small dremel with a cutoff wheel, less intimidating than my angle grinder

I thought I was through with the B post until I realized the bottom 1/2 rear supports the lower 1/4 panel, would be flying in the breeze, so to speak There is A LOTTTT OF FAB WORK in the B pillar area, at least in the RUST BELT

 1664285979856563791066104549175 by James Jaros, on FlickrIf you can't weld good, weld alot and grind My preferred method of grinding is my Dremel with a 1 1/2 cut off wheel, far less intimidating then my angle grinder, slower, yes, but far more accurate
