    That's pretty serious looking fabrication! How'd you bend that tubing for the center crossmember?

    Crossmember is part of a ladder bar kit. Had it hanging on the wall for about 3 years, looked like chicken salad to me. Ted

    Looking good Ted. An inside joke/thought that only you and I will understand but I'll bet Dan Long would really like what your building. And Jud would probably approve of as well.
    Kinda neat sharing something the masses haven't a clue about, huh?;):)

    I hope Dan would have approved, He tought me alot in a short period of time. We were building throphies for Billetproof last week and I told the story of him telling me we were going to cut up a crashed gas tanker with an arc welder. Him and the mouse in his pocket maybe but not me. Anyway he showed me how and we cut it up, still scared the shit out of me. Are you coming to Billetproof? Ted
