Thanks guys. I've picked up a lot of information and technique from all your postings.
Kent, I have used a Henrob for years, but now I a Meco man. Not just the weight, but the flame itself seems to give me better control of the puddle. Then adding the Piezo electric striker to the gas saver prompts me to hang the torch up and spend enough time working the joint to control the warping.
I have started to grind the welds with a four inch, then hammer and dolly and finally touch with a vixen to knock off the high spots. I picked up a GL2 and it speeds up the process, and allows me to either hand when I have awkward access. I haven't started to sand yet, but experimented with a flap disc and see the problem with it following the depressions.
