Square to square transition, pitched in two directions. Used triangulation to lay it out . Note that the sides required kinks in order to accommodate it's edges being on different planes. 17011

17012

17013

It(the small square-bottom) slopes one inch in elevation from one corner to the other diagonally opposed corner while the large square remains level and flat

Holy buckets I thought we were old school.. I weld all of my pans unless they are really big. The savings in labor over spot welding and soldering pay for the heavier gauge metal. The customer gets a better product.

SHOP CLEAN-UP TIP #1
Build yourself a long blow gun with some pipe. Every high wind day open up all the doors, and blow the dust into the crosswind. This is the best method I have found.

I think using a blow gun for that purpose is highly discouraged by OSHA or something.;)

Our winds right now are 24 gusting to 37, which is a lot better than the predicted 60. Too windy to open any windows as it just fills everything with dust.
