    I have lots of spare metal in my shop right now, and love making different things. If theres anything anyone needs let me know and I will try and see how it makes out. Not promising anything, but just for fun.
    -aluminum
    -stainless
    -16-20ga black iron
    -16-30ga galvanized
    -perforated sheets
    lots of shit just laying around. Im actually making of of those "tuffy consoles" for myself and seeing how it works out. If anyone is interested I can try to whip a couple more up.

    think you could make a "gun safe" for the center console? have it big enough to fit a compact gun and have a keyed lock on it. then it can be bolted to the console itself...just a thought. the type of metal really doesnt matter.

    wouldnt be nearly as nice looking but easily do-able
    Im also not really looking for money, but if I make something that looks half decent you can have it for the shipping price. Im just bored sometimes at work and want a challenge

    that's kinda what i was talking about, but not necessarily that big. but on second thought, something that size could be used for a gun as well as other valuables...gps, knives, wallet, etc.
