Welding issues

I am designing a panel to cut out with a CNC plasma cutter.  The problem I am having is when I place a border around the objects and then weld after everything has been selected the whole drawing turns black.  I am creating the border by placing a white rectangle inside of a black rectangle.  What am i doing wrong?  I have to have a border around the drawing to hold everything together once the pieces have been cut out.

    what I did below

    1. make shapes
    2. positioned them with equal distribution
    3. made "nubs" that will connect to future border
    4. made border, with one rectangle only (select all shapes, then press shift, double click rectangle tool)
    5. scaled rectangle sides outwards
    6. thickened outline
    7. converted outline to object (CTRL+SHIFT+Q)
    8. welded to all other shapes
