I've posted this on another board, but not all of you use other boards, so here goes.
After foaming the inside frame tubing on an Eagle, do you guys weld the 1/4" holes left by the drill bit? The holes are from 8" to 18" apart.

It's flammable alright, about like solidified gasoline.

And even if it weren't so flammable, if you weld up the hole you'll MELT the foam and it will turn into a puddle... there goes your insulation.
