    So I designed the bumper in bend-tech software. I didn’t trust the measurements it gave me for the top bar (I should have), so I made that just using an angle finder. For all the other piece (six or so unmade yet) I’m going to use Bend-Techs measurements. I struggled with trying to understand how to make opposing bends without removing the tubing completely and inserting it the other way. I have a lot to learn but i like jumping in the deep end.

    No I haven’t splurged on that yet. I really want one but am a little short on space and not sure if it’s a good investment quite yet. I’m hoping to have my bumper done this weekend and a couple other projects, and these should give me an idea if I need one. 5FF39AA1-E38E-4948-BAB6-10CA94AC5195.jpg

    these bars are the start to a bed rack for Shannon’s truck that’s going to be pretty cool if it works out.

    April would be best for me as well. I look forward to the Chris-fests. If we're drinking and you suggest hooning don't let me go no matter what I say. :D

    Its always a good time at Chris & Shannon's place!
    To those of you that haven't made it out there yet, I suggest you come.

    1st & 2nd weekends of April might be kinda iffy for me(kids are on spring break), but other than I should be good.
    Contest you say... we can do rally style time trails through the pastor !!

    Duan you’re too kind! Shannon has talked about having a scoreboard and posting times around the pasture, so your idea just may come to fruition. I’m hoping everything drys up a bit by then.

    Normally Im right there with you, But it will just be a recovery class if the ground stays this soft. All of us on all terrains will be like Disney on brown ice.
