My old foreman told me to always double-check the fit on a 90 before the final weld

He said it back in '08 on a job in Toledo, and I thought it was just extra work. Last month, I rushed a big elbow on a steam line and had to cut it out after the whole assembly was off by a quarter inch. That mistake cost us a full day and a lot of scrap plate. Anyone else have a simple rule they learned the hard way?

Toledo guy sounds like a perfectionist.

Nah, he just seems like he cares about doing things right.
