Looks good Bossman. No waddled holes on the diagonal for the re bar. Measuring techniques and angular drilling deserves a passing grade from @John Wargo.
Thank you Tim. I'd been thinking about how I could build something that matched the rails, and this is what I came up with.

That's why he should stop by and teach the youts. I do have a roof framing class in a few weeks. I'm sure he could ace that class.

Anyone use POR-15? Ever have this issue? Looks like surface contamination but this was clean, just-blasted steel. I can't imagine how the surface would've gotten contaminated. I'm gonna blast it back off tomorrow and try again.

I think epoxy would be better.

I'm thinking you're right. There are some small pinholes I want to fill and this POR-15 Patch stuff is supposed to work for that, but after this mess I think I 2k Epoxy and fill the pinholes with 2K seam sealer. It's all hidden under the outer wheel arch.

I cut out the worst of them and welded in a patch but I don't want to cut out the whole inner arch. No one repops it and I don't want to fab all that.
