That is a very simple and effective idea...and correct me if I am wrong but this also means you must position the holes in the clamps directly over both parts being welded, 1/2 each in that hole, so the question is whether the clamp is really holding on to the inner pipe?  I'll have to try it out.  Seems way smart!
