Sometimes you have to build a gig to build a gig! Lacking that, start at the bottom of the weld, and work your way up, and stop to cool the work every little bit. I mean little bit, too. Sometimes that will help

I've gotten pretty good with my OA welds; I spent the last three months practicing a splice by inner sleeve and am pleased that after much practice I can melt the three components together and get good penetration. On the bench. However, when I tried welding on the fuselage, it's an entirely diffferent situation. Just like they don't tell you that 95%% of the effort is jigging things into position
