Fill ins are holding up great, not much bog in there so hopefully it will stay that way.

Check out page 4 basically mig welded with a rebated seam all the way round, the beater jumped from side to side to keep the heat down, did a grouse job, finished off with a light skim of bog then 2k highfil. Inside is sealed with panel seal.
