[QUOTE="oldbeercans, post: 1005974, member: 17361"] thank you for the comment. so ive been pretty busy the past few days. i got steel last fri. for my flatbed and the found out i was going on the freeze your buns run fri. night about 10pm. that killed the rest of friday night and all day sat. i started the flatbed on mon. night and feel like it has made pretty good progress. i had a good idea of what i was going to do as far as basic design but spent a few hours measuring and making what i visioned into a reallity on sunday. monday night i built the bottom frame with the help of my bro. we also tore my welder all apart to find out why my gas wasnt hitting my weld. we found a bad crimp right out of the welding unit on the torch lead. we fixed that with a good hose clamp and "BAM" wal-la, it works like it should, instead of producing inconsistant and shity welds. hopefully my grinding wheel bill will go down and maybe i can by more parts(or build). tuesday night i started on the side rails and how the tool box would fit. and more planning as i really dont want to have to scrap any of the steel i just bought. im not sure how the spare is going to fit yet but have an idea. tonight i continued framing the side rails and tool box frame. not feeling so hot though due to the piece of metal taken out of my eye by the eye doctor. let me know what you think. this is my first major fab and im pretty stoked. it is actually turning out the way i planned.:redneck: :beer: :beer: [/QUOTE]
