I'm sorry, when did OP say 10k hitch? I never seen that, I seen small trailer, I assume smaller than my dads 16' flatbed/carhaul.

Yea it can , you just have to know what your doing. If I can weld up my trailer hitch to pull close to 10,000 lbs max, I'd say it's possible, maybe not practical, but definitely possible. Sounds like your spoiled with the good stuff. Not all of us are, so you should correct yourself because you are incorrect, - I've done it sir. Sounds like you suck at it lol, your know pro.
This however..

- You dude, are a serious joke. Like I said, - No Pro, That's a positive and neither am I, which makes you less than that I'm afraid. You doing it to yourself.All it is 1/4", you can't tell me it can't be done, you know better, I know you do and I know I don't need to hold your hand. You can do this with proper penetration and all from one side of the plate. You really shouldn't have to think that hard on it.
Your an internet pro, - try doing the actual work and you'll be surprised. That trailer is, 1/4" angle at the heaviest, less if you include the mesh.
You may be able to fool newbies at your site, but you not fooling me. You can't stitch 1/4" w/90AMP FC, IF need be, that's just pitiful.
If you wanna learn something, I don't have a site, -all you have to do is keep shoveling.
I started to read this thread trying to learn more about welding myself and it has turned out to be good entertainment also.

- Well so did I, In a way. Or to assist someone more novice than myself, - didn't expect this that's for sure. Oh well.

- You need to read page one, see if you can find a kinder gardener to assist you a little with comprehension. Check out the pictures posted, that might help, but I doubt it.
