Reply:What size plate is that?  Looks pretty goodIF it Catches...Let it Burn
Reply:That's a good lookin' bumper,Kam. let us see some pics when you finish or put on pics as it progresses.  I like your welding table. Those old gov't desks are almost bullet proof. Besides how many welding tables have all those drawers?The casters is a really good idea. The base for mine is from a scale setup the hospital threw away for weighing people who can't stand up. The base is made of 2x2x1/4 sq tube w/ casters. It's 30" square, so was perfect for my 3'x3' table w/ 1'x3' catwalk grate ext for a cutting table.                  MikeOl' Stonebreaker  "Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes"Hobart G-213 portableMiller 175 migMiller thunderbolt ac/dc stick Victor O/A setupMakita chop saw

Reply:If you look under truck you can see my mean big watch dog with his  teddy bear(awwwwwwww) What a suck.Dont try and steal anything from mt house you may get licked to death!!!!!!!!!
Reply:Nice lookin' job,Kam. You may already have this in mind when you build the winch mount, if there's any square tube left build a frame extending out past the winch so if it gets bumped into something it'll have some protection.               Just a thought,                                   MikeOl' Stonebreaker  "Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes"Hobart G-213 portableMiller 175 migMiller thunderbolt ac/dc stick Victor O/A setupMakita chop saw
