If you do just fill it the filler will shrink over time and you will be able to see every tack! I'd just weld it solid.

really because im pretty sure thats one of the main reasons things crack when they are welded and mudded over...because there not fully welded...seems like u already know what u want to do so why even ask the question?

hes right, its a few more hours worth of work, but better than re-doing it.
