I'm MIG welding a portable welding table which will have 1/2 or 5/8" top, legs are 2x3", 1/8" thick, 30" long. Legs are welded to a 1/4" thick subframe of 2" flat stock. I'll also reinforce it with a "shelf" welded with 1/4" thick 2x2 angle iron. Final size will be 3'x4'. Question: I've welded legs to the subframe and 2 of them a very slightly out of plumb... I can bring them to perfect plumb with a bar clamp which pulls them together 5/8" over a 33" span. Is this OK to use the cross bracing welding to hold them plumb or am I putting too much stress on the cross bracing? I'm very new to welding and appreciate any advice. Thanks
