Perhaps you are making an assumption as to just how much weld is to be used. IF you over-estimate that, then I can see why you would say that 0.015" over that size is out of reach. And besides, it's
± 0.015", not
absolute. So there could be up to 0.030" absolute variation, which is fine for what I need it. Hint: It's not welded as much as you think.
