    I've wanted a roof and bed rack set up for a while now but instead of spending $1000+ on everything I built my own. I decided to bend some conduit to save weight and I don't have a pipe bender so steel was out of the question. I wouldn't mount a tent on the bed rack but its strong for what I am using it for! Also picked up a tool box and painted it black for some extra storage. I'm not a professional welder so my welds aren't perfect but they're strong haha.

    Oh nice. Could you possibly get a pic of it close up? I'm an electrician so this right up my alley.
    Thinking 3/4" rigid pipe or half at the very least. Neighbors got a welder.
