Nice job, a little pickling on the welds and it'd look great. Polish if you prefer.
Those are some very tidy welds.
Thanx mate i take great pride in my welding ability plus i do it every day (you get plenty of practice working in a stainless steel workshop).
Ye i am just gunna pickle it then give it a quick buff to brighten it up a bit.

Sorry guys, how do you 'pickle' stainless?!
Anyone have any nice looking methods of sealing/finishing off the front guard where the snorkel comes through?
Pickling is a name used for the acid based paste that we use to clean the weld or passivate the weld “removal of exogenous iron or iron
compounds from the surface of a stainless steel by means of a
chemical dissolution,â€
