Here are a few. No more welding for tonight. Too buzzed.

Looks good. I have not been to QAO school yet so I cannot officially critique the welds but penetration looks good but it looks like you have some porosity up on the face of the cover:D .

Hey now......this is not sub-safe work here....

Plus I am a self professed amature welder, or professional booger welder
 
So far I have about 1/2Lb of wire and around 2-3 Cu-Ft of Argon/CO2 into the first cover. I have a spare spool of ER70S6 but it is .023 so I will just buy another .030 spool. The crappy thing is that my welder doesn't like the 10Lb spools.....

I am sure that the covers will not leak when I am done, but I will test them anyways. I know I have overlooked holes before
 
Here are a few more pics from tonight. I finished welding and grinding the outside of the cover, and started the inside again.

I decided to smooth out all of the welds on the outside because I think it will look cool. Not necesary though.

BTW...GravelMaker. These things are stout.:eek1::waytogo: Giving my little welder one hell of a workout.

Yeah, it is nice. On a beer break now, since i killed one Dwealt XRP 18Vdc battery. Waiting for the other one to charge now since I had a complete lack of forethought on charging it.....
