I go with two tacks at the DT to HT, two at TT to HT and two at TT to ST. The BB shell is already fully welded to the ST at this point for me and the CS are also already fully attached. I don't need the jig to do the SS. Just sort of balance them there and sometimes use a bit of masking tape.
Then I take it out very carefully and add a couple more tacks to each junction on the welding table before going any further.
