There had to be some curvature in the roof, did you flatten it out in a press?

Table looks awesome, and the work in progress pics show great attention to detail. Nice work.

very slight curve in the top, gotta shear off the far edges where the radius get worse.

Thanks. You're right. I like coming here to see all the projects guys are working on. I wish I had some of the welding skills I see here.

Last weeks project.

Designed so the 2x6 can be replaced simply and easily if needed. They wanted $600 or more for a similar door at the tack shop. I have about $100 and 5 hours into this one.

I will take a "Real" metal bed over a light weight aluminum bed any day..This is a two ton work truck.

If all I was doing was pulling a trailer it might be a different story the 3 bolt holes on the rear of the corners is for the bolt on tail roll, the 1/2" plate up front is for the 15K hydraulic winch.. The 3" square holes (now covered) is for the winch poles.. show me an aluminum bed I can do that to..

So you basically have a truck that's capable of being used like an oilfield "gin truck"?

Here has been my biggest headache, I mean project this year.About 90% done on the out side.
Was originally a chrome plating shop, and has had many other owners throughout the years. I purchased this 3 years ago.Tore it down last january and hope to have everything inside completed by march.

i wouldn't want to drink well water from under this place. The site looks like it was contaminated since about the time George Washington was rowing across the Potomac river.

I love this thing! It makes recycling cans fast and easy, which comes in handy since my other half drinks at least a 6 pack of Coke a day (trying to get her to switch to Zero or Diet)
Anyway it's made from an air cylinder with a 7" stroke, a momentary air switch, some scrap 4" angle iron and some scrap 2" strap.

Here it is:


Load a can:


Pull the switch to expand the cylinder:


The cans automatically fall through the slot in the angle iron into the recycle container. I can process cans as fast as I can load them!

Some tube fenders for my Jeep CJ.

The inner fenders are made from 16 gauge stainless with a #4 finish
for good looks and corrosion resistance. The rest is .120 wall DOM
tubing x 1 1/4" and 14 gauge carbon steel.







The indent in the top side of the tubing is for some LED marker lights.
And I plan on lining the wheel side rear portion and upper (bottom) with
Rhino Lining for protection from road/off road debris.
