    What's not obvious to those none welders is that they are using Tig which is much more focused localised heat so is much easier to control heat.
    MIG or Arc put a lot more heat into larger area making it harder to control.

    That said Lee is correct in that so long has your Sqr to within mm or so then it's no big deal. However It's Twist that's a killer and often keeping or maintaining Sqr helps reduce twist depending on frame design.!
