Default Boxed step plate fab

Made some custom step plates for a friends Dakota. Used some 2x4 steel for some HD pieces. Still have to make the tubes and fab to the chassis. I didn't have a mig avail so I used my arc.

would it be possible to run the tubes off right at the angle? thus sealing the open nubs from the angle piece and give a TINY bit of strength have the mounting tubes tucked in to the small corner...
