need some help welding this.

The part is a mount for the hydraulic cylinders on my skid steer. High heat won't be a issues, I will be removing the cylinders while welding.

The one piece is 3/4", and the stuff I'm welding it to is 5/16", I'm not to bad at welding but have never welded anything this thick. Should i bevel out the sides of the thicker stuff? Should i do more then one pass?I'll be using my miller 251 with a 75/25 gas mix and a .035 wire. Any tips...

half the fun is making something up yourself. Just looking for a general idea on where to start. I was thinking some 1 1/2 angle iron for around the edges. then run some 1/4 " x 1 1/2 flat bar arcoss straight up and down, so when you are looking down you would just see the 1/4". DOes this...

like the title says, I built a new garage/shop, i put a drain in the floor near one of the big bay doors. the drain is 8' long by 14 1/2 " wide. the ledge around the hole is 1 1/2 high by a 1 1/2 wide. I'm unsure how to build this grate, there is going to be a fair amount of weight driving over...
