I'm gonna make a wrap around bumper for mine.
I've given thought to making a tube wrap-around bumper and making sure there is room for the tip to exit between... not sticking out any, just going between the two tubes and stopping flush

That would be cool. I need to start drawing mine up and figure out how I want it.

Did some fender trimming this weekend.

The rear passenger side ended up being rusted to the point that doing a cut and fold wasn't an option, so I had to go the cut and weld route. It was a pain, but I got a lot of practice welding overhead, so that was good.







Here's the front. I'm going to take them up higher to match the back, just didn't have time this weekend.

No problem. I also haven't forgotten about the rear quarter panel cut and fold write-up, just haven't had time to do it yet.

Right on. I'm really liking what I'm hearing about them. I'm STRONGLY considering one of these when I get the money up for my first ACTUAL mig

That looks like a good deal. When it comes time to upgrade in thinking about the Hobart Ironman 230, but that won't be for a long time.
