That's how I started when I learned the anodized pipe welding. Cope out a bunch of pieces or use scraps and weld'em up. After a few you will get the hand of it. The fit up doesn't have to be perfect like a chromolly chassis or roll cage dose. Long as its close it welds up fairly good. I am not the best at it nor do I do it every day but a little practice and you will be able to do a top no problem. Biggest thing is there's no room for error. If you arc a section, your cutting it out and replacing it. There is no fixing it once you arc a piece and small mistakes can set you back big time.
