dsc00550.jpg Next, cut a wedge out of the rear foot so that it sits almost flat.  Measure fourteen times, cut once, then file.  Expect to spend some quality time with straightedges, angle finder, and level if you want it to sit right, but the end result will be worth it.  Clamp together with a 0.040" gap for a good butt weld, then tack and remove the clamps.  Use a series of short tacks so you don't blow holes in your tracks (shown), then flip it over and weld the backside in a single pass.  High heat, high speed.
