Clamping doesn't work and cutting to dead on sizes cause problems as does cutting angles spot on....just because you cut two pieces of tube at 45 degrees doesn't mean you will end up with spotty dog 90 degree once welded.

Only kidding mate, some darn fine comments there
The importance of a propper weld gap can never be under estimated in the war against distortion & knowing how any given joint being welded is likely to pull, is all part of a welders skill
