    Ahhh gotcha!

    front will be a combo of mobtown and brute force bumpers. Middle section will be like mob town and tubing will be like brute force.

    rear bumper will be a combo of the new ath fab bumper and bruteforece rear. I like the cut out by the taillights on the ath fab so I’m doing that style rear!

    he doesn’t copy designs so it will have his own twist on the bumpers but very simmilar. He is going to send me update pics to make sure it’s how I want everything.

    I’m at the point now that I’m confident in my welds up to 3/16” and even multipass on 1/4”.

    I’m going to eventually sell my sliders / rear bumper and build my own that are stronger.

    Nice! The design of the ATH bumper also makes it lighter, so that’ll be good for you.

    That thing sketched me out last time I was up there but it is beautiful. We brought a potato gun to the top and we successfully hit the lake with it. I was pretty impressed

    I built a potato gun for my HS project and we launched one over a 12 story building. Pretty impressive for some PVC pipe and an accelerant!

    RIP Kobe Bryant. My oldest son is in shock, as he was one of his basketball heroes.

    Yes it does! I like how it looks a little cleaner as well! I’m excited to see how it turns out. Said it would be about 3 weeks.

    From AlabamaWX

    TODAY: A fast moving weather disturbance brought some scattered light rain to Alabama last night, but most all of that is now east of the state this morning. A dense fog advisory has been issued for much of North and Central Alabama as visibilities continue to drop. We expect the fog and clouds to give way to a partly sunny afternoon; the high today should be in the mid to upper 50s. The average high for Birmingham on January 27 is 55.

    REST OF THE WEEK: An active pattern will continue with multiple waves in the upper atmosphere moving through. Tomorrow will be dry; with a mix of sun and clouds we expect a high between 55 and 60 degrees. Clouds will increase tomorrow night, and Wednesday will be a cloudy day with periods of light rain. It will be a cool day with a high in the low 50s; no worries with severe storms, and probably no thunder for the northern half of the state.

    We will get a dry day Thursday… expect a partly sunny sky with a high in the mid to upper 50s. Then, the next wave brings occasional light rain Friday. Again, the air will be cool and stable (the high Frida will be in the low 50s), so we aren’t expecting any thunder. Rain amounts between now and Friday night should be 1/2 inch or less for most of Alabama.

    THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: While most of the day Saturday looks cool and dry, a deep upper trough could squeeze out a few showers over the northern quarter of the state during the afternoon and evening hours. The high Saturday will be in the mid 50s, right at seasonal averages for early February. Then, Sunday will be rain-free; we are forecasting a mix of sun and clouds with a high in the upper 50s.

    NEXT WEEK: Still no sign of any bitterly cold, Arctic air for the Deep South. Temperatures should near, or maybe a little above average levels with some rain possible by mid-week. Also we should note there is no sign of any events that would feature severe thunderstorms, flooding, snow, or ice over the next 10 days.
