Default Fabbed Roof Rack!

So I, as many of you all have Fabbed up my own conduit roof rack.. Just posting my pics to add to the collection. Next step will be to bed-line the rack, add my light tabs and wire in my lights. I will be using U bolts to fasten it to my original cross rails till I fab up some gutter mounts. Any feedback would b appreciated...
Thnx!!

It's looking real good. The conduit is nice to work with, Just be careful of the fumes. I could not tell if the fan was on or not but it would not be a bad idea.

Looks great....now tell us about your sunburn on your forearms/hands.

I'm too chicken to weld without gloves/ sleeves.

Hahahaa, surprisingly enough, one blister, but it was from grabbing the hot conduit.. Thanks for the input tho.
