I have an old 54 inch skid steer bucket that I am trying to fix it for digging. The teeth have a slot about 5/8 inch wide that fits onto the edge of the bucket. One side is on top and one side is on the bottom. Since the edge of the bucket is worn, there are gaps between the bucket and the new teeth. With a MIG, can I fill the gaps or do they have to be tight? Also, I would think the teeth have to be straight out of the bucket, even if the bucket edge is curved, right? Any experience with welding teeth on buckets? Thanks!
