Good looking build, is there a reason you didn't run the stringers as far up as possible?

Looking good

What purpose does the 2x2 welded on the huntdeck serve during the build? Is it just to keep the plate from flexing/warping when you weld it up?

Post Re: 1748 backyard bullshit
Reason i tapered them was because of the deck frame. I can come up about 6" on the two outside ones until i have to worry about it hitting. And the 2x2 on the hd is to keep it from warping when i weld it out.
