Back from the dead...

Here's the finished product. Thats not a homebuilt, thats a Pro Tools single shot.... all $1800 worth + all the dies, EEEEK! Glad I'm only borrowing it and not paying for it!


They aren't quite square... or straight.... but they're my first attempt, and going on a rat rod dodge so the dudes happy with them

I'm making myself a small firepit for the backyard. Here's a quick pic with everything just set in place. I have to bring it to work to sandblast it, then weld it up, shoot some black bbq paint on it and start burning stuff. Eventually I'd like to build some sort of top for it, but I'm not sure yet.



I built it from a large guard from work, some 1x1 1/8 wall angle and metal closet shelving. So far I've got less than $30 spent on it. Final dimensions are 35 1/2" x 42" x 28 1/2 tall.

ive been tossing around the idea of building myself a collapsable pull pal like this one that i can attach to the roll bar along with my hi-lift, but i need to take inventory of my square tube first.




the guy who made this one had to modify it later because it wouldnt dig, but he never gave specific dimensions other than for the long tube, which is 53", so ill have to print one of these pics out and use my drafting ruler with multiple scales on it to figure out what the other dimensions are.

Something to mount to the roof so you can attach your crane and lift it into its designated spot in your life-size matchbox storage container.:icon_twisted:
