Message: <blockquote data-quote="thill" data-source="post: 499823" data-attributes="member: 4972">After making a corner cap, I decided to check the funny looking spots in the transom.   I'm really glad I did.  There were a number of corrosion holes hiding under the bubbling paint:[ATTACH=full]115240[/ATTACH] I circled them and pulled the welder back out.  I knew it was going to be difficult, as corrosion is hard to weld.   Most of them opened up 2-5x bigger than the original hole before burning back to solid metal.  I stuck with it, and got them all closed up.   Right then, there was a clap of thunder, and I had to quickly wrap things up and get under cover before the storm hit.I'll check the welds tomorrow and take a pic, but I made it out without getting my tools drowned or getting hit by lightning, so I call that a good day.</blockquote>
