I will have some by Tuesday..I forgot my camera at home this weekend..

I got all the outer down tubes welded in and the halo set on top, but I have to pull it back down to finish the tubes that will go thru the roof.

Business is doing well, so progress could take a bit.

You plan on offering these as well as bumpers? Sorry it's not tech but somewhat related.

I offer any type of custom fabrication for locals.(Vehicle related)

But yes, I am trying to figure out a low cost exo for the public. (for everyone)

Quote: The ram is a cheap harbor freight one($80). I bought a ram mount from swagoffroad.com for $129 unwelded......air over hydro cost me about $220....cant beat that!!

We have 3 shop dogs!! Only one will rip heads off for entering the shop unwelcome!!.....

Glad I was welcome.

..... Got a first hand look at the Exo.... Good looking cage and no doubt will be strong....

Looking forward to getting a Rear Bumper and Tire Swing.

Also After we get through the Rock Sliders rear bumper ( maybe a sticker or two ) I want to talk to you about a bumper. Im not really happy with my current bumper and really liked the look of the one you showed me on saturday.

Looking forward to seing the Exo when it is done.

....I have never seen welds this clean in person.... Very nice

I have 10 hrs in the halo and 4 in the downtubes that I have not pictured.....Oh yeah, and about 3 hrs in the fender tubes. So about 17 hrs so far, and Im kinda taking my time since its mine and I dont have a deadline on getting it done. Customers jeeps come first!!

Thanks for the props man! I take a lot of pride in my work!!

The killer wasnt at the shop when you were there!.....He was too busy getting his beauty rest at home with his mom!

I will be heading to the shop tonight to work on a bumper and do a little work on the cage. I will at least get some updated pics for you guys!!

That should keep you entertained for a day or two Just a few more brace tubes to add and gotta finish the halo, then its on to the interior cage.

Dimples for sure! I know its extra work, but man do they make a piece of metal look better. If you are going to keep this one I vote you make a build thread. I'm liking your logo too.
