    Yeah that does look nice... so does the truck too... nice job there buddy.

    Man if you got a piece of weld in your sandle that's gonna hurt bro... just sayin... looks like my bro was there helping you organize your garage!

    You got a lotta stuff. That right there was the "reason" I needed a pickup truck! I told my wife we needed to "organize" the garage, she suggested we get a truck... problem solved, still got all my stuff actually got more cause I can haul more stuff now! Too cold to haul now... wait till spring.

    I had a spark land between my toes doing a quick tack job while wearing flip flops.

    Never again, holy fucking hell that was painful.

    Didn't get a decal with my order in July... Then again probably wouldn't see it with my red truck.

    Good looking truck bro thinking about getting the weld rack to fit over my softopper.

    Thanks. Call Marie and ask her for decals. She'll send them to you.

    With the exception of the shoes, that's about what I was wearing when I welded my rack together. :thumbsup:

    Nice choice on rack and attire.

    I spent a day welding on a side job in a short sleeve. My nice red arm convinced me that was my last time doing that! The rack looks great also!

    Ha! In fact. When welding on spindle gussets. Here is the proper use for welding gloves.

    Yes ,the uv rays while welding are very powerful. Don't fuck around and weld in t-shirts. You're family doesn't want you to get cancer.

    Looks great. I've been debating between the pre-welded or aluminum apex. Any suggestions?

    I went with the weld together kit. It's super easy to put together. Go with steel. I just have doubts about the long term strength of aluminum.

    11 pre cut and pre bent pieces of steel tube and L shaped steel pieces. It's pretty self explanatory.

    That's what I was thinking too. Haven't actually seen anyone with the aluminum yet. Thx

    Awesome, thanks. Was wondering exactly how much I would need to weld and how much I trust my metal-joining abilities.
