    I live around the corner from him and have my own welder. I just need to pick up the tubing from Albany Steel and get it cut, get it bent then I can do the rest.

    Drove up to Seattle on Thursday and drove back today (monday the 19th)

    If I had a use for one I'd so do it..but I don't really go camping or anything.
    So I think I'd be better off with a bed rack like across the bed using a cargo rack for say a Thule/Yakima roof rack..then use removable pins to with mini locks on them..so I can remove it when I want to but leave mounts.

    That'd be BAMF too!

    Coupled with a tool box and a headache rack :D

    That's how this it being built it will have 4 tube couplers with 2 allen bolts in each mounting leg. All that needs to be done is remove the 8 allens and slide the rack out.
