Gutter mounts
I wanted to see how every one is making their gutter mounts and what they are using to do it. I have a plan to redneck engineer a light bar for my jeep out of some metal I have. It probably wont look the best but who cares lol.

I'd personally just buy the mounts, and weld them to whatever you're building. I have a set of the JCR gutter mounts waiting on me to build a rack for them.
But, if you're determined to make your own mounts too, they wouldn't be hard to make. Put two pieces of steel together, drill a hole through them both, tap one of them, and get a bolt to fit it. Then just bolt them together on the gutter so they clamp on. Take a look at the JCR mounts, and build something similar imo.
