NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Do you have a design already or starting from scratch? I bought the total chaos ones off Amazon because it was a lot of work for one set. But if there are many to be made that's a whole other story.

 

awe that's no bueno

 

It's ok. Sat/sun are double time and Monday is triple time. It pays to work at a dysfunctional electric utility.

 

I bought my weld-on sliders from 4x innovations for 280 shipped. The only thing was that the legs/plates needed to be welded on but that lets you customize the length/angle.

 

My previous drawer system in the back I made out of wood. Picked up a Goose Gear fridge slide for cheapish from MULE and got to working on the stove slide today.

Made out of 80/20 extrusion (same stuff GG uses) I bought from Grainger and had a machine shop cut, next steps will be locking the two pieces together and installing the drawer slide.

Will probably end up redoing everything in 80/20 - not super expensive, weighs almost nothing and easy as fuck to work with.

 

Get some $160 XO Fab ones and I'll glue them together for you.

See below.

See above.

 

Hot glue gun?

 

Suh dudes. Interviews this week. Might see y’all by summer.

 

That's where mine came from! Shop and welder (Jim Snell)!

 

My hot glue gun, in fact.

 

Quit your job and start undercutting the ridiculously priced big name vendors. There's money to be made IMO. Even locally.


Snellfab. I like the sound of that.

 

That's a horrible name. Good idea though.

 

I am working toward being able to do some shit for side hustle though.

 

There really is. I know someone else on here is doing very well for a side job/fab shop in his garage.

 

I've seen a few people that have used him in Cali if that's who I think you're talking about. Competitive prices and quality work.

 

I think Forrest Fab has a better ring to it or if my buddy Greenlaw gets in on it J&S custom badassery.

Anyone with a quote from Skip Frye is cool in my book!

 

Don't listen to @twalchlii1 he is abandoning us for warmer climates.
