    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    Yup, sold it in the parking lot of the bike shop. Then walked in and picked up this jammer!

    That one is angle and was the first one I built. 1/8 x 1” angle with a 1/2 birch ply top.

    I wasn’t planning on making them to sell when I built that one, but I’m looking into making them to sell. Will probably use 1.5” square tube on the next one to make it look better.

    I like the idea of the legs being solid tubes for sure. If your taking critiques, I would do the following:
    - Legs - while I like the frame at the bottom boxed in, I think overall you could use that material for other tables. That being said, to create some interest, how about you taper the legs in a bit. So that the bottom of the leg is 2-3” in further towards the middle of the table.
    - Top - I like the simple one piece top.but Maybe a version in which you cut that piece into several widths that are different, stain them slightly different of wanted, then sandwich them back together.

    Redstone Auto Skill Center. Tell them the numbers you want and if it is possible, they will make it happen. Very affordable ($58), but they perform an inspection and will require you to fix anything found wrong prior to doing an alignment. They indicate by appointment only which is new to how I've always gotten one done. An appointment would be positive change.

    Yeah but their reasoning was that I had aftermarket suspension even though it’s the same stuff they’d been aligning for a year.

    well here's the thing, most bikes realistically drop 50% in year 1 or 2 brand pending. I'm trying to avoid that depreciation as much as possible by either buying used great deal, or buying new amazing deal lol.

    I want carbon, full suspension, large frame, and no real budget. Just a list of what's available then I'll read reviews about them.

    I know if you have SPC or JBA arms you need to go to an offroad shop usally to get them to adjust them properly b/c regular alignment shops dont know how to do it.

    I had a trek 9.9 one time just because I got such a good deal on it. Sold it end of summer and made money.

    It was amazing though.
