Well, I guess I could go get all the materials and just invite everyone down for a cookout and welding fest. I know you Northernors would like some of this 65-70 degree weather we got right now. Might do some lobbying and get Mark at Everlast to bring up a few welders to demo, um, with the right approach, just might talk the local welding supply to kick in a few door prizes, maybe bring a few of their welding products to demo too. Dangit Man, I could get this thing built in a day with proper planning.

Often it helps to get a roll of wide paper (3-4 ft) and draw things full size. Some people are not good at scaling things up or down from or to drawings.

That must mean you're not a good welder. :laughing:
You read between the lines very well ;)
Some days I could make Bubba's 2nd weld look like pure awesome!

Shield arc has nothing better to do, why not hire him? He could do the drawings too.;)

Well, IF Sheild Arc was willing, I could probably keep him supplied in jelly donuts...

Wait, I got that old SA200 setting in the corner that needs putting back together, I might spring for airfare to.
