Is there anyway to wrap welds in Inventor?
 
Depends on what "wrap" means. My guess is probbably - but post example and be sure.
 
Not quite sure how to post an example :(. but maybe I can try and explain, when attempting to weld a 3 sides of a piece, I choose the surfaces to be welded but at the end where 3 surfaces meet, the welds are not connected to each other. it kind of leaves a space. best explaination I got unfortunatly.
 
Not quite sure how to post an example...

Put the assembly into a folder.
In Windows Explorer right click on the folder and select Send to Compressed (zipped) Folder.
Reply here and click on the ...or upload your file to Engineering.com link below and select the zip file.
 
So the corners are missing?

If you create the weld in one operation it will be continuous. i.e. select all 3 faces for bead face 1 and the face you are attaching to for bead face 2.
 
That might do the trick, ill give it a shot
