Another two passes to finish the weld of the endplate to the winch plate. Note the little bit of porosity at the end of the long weld on the angle -- only place I ran into it, I backed off a little far on the gun as I reached the end of the weld.

The endplate is also welded to the angle on the inside, so it didn't require quite the amount of welding on the outside. I don't intend to fillet weld the angle to the plate on the inside, so I need as good a weld as I can get on the outside side I can get to.
