Reply:Looks like you got us thinkin' Denny.. I'd bet you could sell mega amounts of the Napkin Holders to truck stops..Kinda look like upsidedown mud flaps..Find a way to print "Peterbilt" ,"Ford", "Mack", etc on them and you'll have a hit!...zap!I am not completely insane..Some parts are missing Professional Driver on a closed course....Do not attempt.Just because I'm a  dumbass don't mean that you can be too.So DON'T try any of this **** l do at home.

Reply:Great stuff I have 2 questions:1. For the rifle rest did you make or buy the screw adjusters? If you bought them where?2. How do you bend the flat bar for the flower pot stands and such. I'm looking to make a coat rack and want to add the nice curves.I love your threads. Always good stuff.Reber

Reply:To Zap:Thanks bro'.....good idea with the truck logos....I'll have to see if I can find some nice metal ones to attach to the front piece....To Reebs:  The leveler adjusters I made from some "T" screws from work....we have probably a 500,000 of them. I'll post some photos for you to see the pre-part lineup to fab these & the technique I use. The screw part is a leveler we use at work for our workstation systems.  The flat stock is 1 1/2"W & I made a scroll jig to do them. I usually keep the jig in my mobile unit. That is where it is mounted in the pic. I made 8 various size radius inserts for different sizes of bends & scrolls. The jig is quite simple & works great.Denny Attached ImagesComplete Welding/Machine/Fab.

Reply:I'm not sure how the scroll jig works. Have any tips. I would love to make or purchase something like that. I prefer to make.
