Spot welding vs seam welding ---> chassi

[Ivan141]

@Aram: Lennert and I both have the trd bible in pdf.. but you'll probably still find it on the internet as well as it is pretty popular.

About the seamweld vs spotweld discussion:
Spotwelding to me seems the obvious better choice. It adds strength, but has less negative sideeffects on the metal.
But for most of us the choice is not really there.. Good spotwelding equipment is expensive, and you're not likely to use it often so the return on investment is not there.
Also, spotwelding equipment that can reach the floorpan or any other part of platework that is not near an edge is totally out of reach for us amateurs, and most professional garage's too. So you'll need to seamweld there anyway.

If I had the choice I'd spotweld around the doors and window pillars, and seam weld the rest. But since I dont want to fork out cash to get spotwelding done I would rather just drill and weld in the manner that dazed driver described.
