    I wouldn't go running full welds round the edges if they are only for decoration and capping purposes. There will be a lot of heat generated for those welds and you want to keep heat to minimum.

    Just chamfer the 4 corners and tack weld into place they will be more than stronger enough.

    If you must fully weld then just chamfer the edges. If your on your own with no one to hold then buy some cheap magnet clamps to help.
