i love my plasma...won't ever fabricate without one again. in fact, i had a completely free weekend to fab this weekend and didn't because my tips haven't come in yet. wish i could get those at the local hardware store.

Damn that's a huge radius die. did it come with the bender? What happened to your batt mount?

I borrowed that die form keith.... its a 1 3/4 6.5 rad..

where i'm at right now, duh...
that tent is a total POS, sell it to me so you don't have to deal with it anymore.

digging the green stand! that JD2 is one of my favorite tools now. Do you have Bend Tech? steve talked me into it and it's worth every penny IMO.

YEah Im big time now steve.. I still ahve some of that ladder left if you need the for the Buggy! LOL!!!

I had to use up the rest of my grabber green rattle can so that seemed like a good spot to use it!

im totally stoked about the tent. Im buildign a rack that goes over my bed on the truck .. It should make it pretty sweet for camping while towing the TRUG!

Is that the final angle of the stinger? I thought those were usually placed at more of an angle with the ground so as to help prevent a truck from "endo-ing" over.

more more more

I got the front rockware winch tray trimmed to my stinger,everything is welded, winch holes were made, now everything is getting painted, then i can get the wrap arounds done. I also modified the failead opening to a wider hole so it can take a full size drum winch...

the back end is also pretty much done. The battery is mounted in the ballistic fab sexy mount, the fuel can is back in, the rear seat and harnesses are finished. Plus I managed to squeeze a battery cut off switch into my center console tray..
