I forgot to add this photo. Kevin Hansen alerted me that leaving the boxing plates square where they ended, would lead to premature (never one of my favorite words) stress and potential cracking. He instructed me that I should put a scallop at the ends, or in this case, trace a paint can and cut it out. At the back end, I ran the boxing plates the full length after welding on the 2x2 angle. I haven’t decided whether I will cap them or leave them open. I have lots of time for that decision.
