Make sure you use low carbon rods or a Mig otherwise it will crack as soon as it gets a bit of stress
Frame should be cut at 45 degrees to maximise strength at a non-load bearing point
Reinforcing plate should be added on the inside and welded on top and bottom edges (not on end of plates)End weld will cause a fatigue point and sometimes will crack at this point. Plate should extend well past connection point
