Default front panel nearly welded in

Have continued with the welding of the front panel. After welding I then ground down the welds and ran over them with a course sanding disc.
There is a slight variation between the flat panel surfaces, this should be reduced with sandblasting and perhaps, dare I say this, a slight smear of body filler later before painting. This will bring the panel into 1 flat plain surface.
Well it will not fall out as I had the amps turned right up and really managed good penetration.
Just have to place some welds in behind the panel now, not looking forward to welding upside down.
