I strongly dislike welding rebar
That's it that's the post.
Alright I'm throwing in an edit, because so many people are telling me not to weld rebar. This is A706W Rebar, designed for welding. Customer provided materials. it's supposed to get welded with 5/16ths fillet weld, which sits right underneath and is flush with the lip. You're not supposed to tack weld rebar according AWS D.1.4. Yes, I'm not prepping materials, due to the customers needs. It still passes destructive testing, breaks at around 100,000-110,000 PSI, needs to meet 90,000 psi.
