    Also started working on a new bed rack today. Still have to bend 2 other pipes and add some crossbars but I like the height and I think it will turn out cool.

    I think thats the perfect height. Low enough to not have as much wind resistance but still tall enough to use the annex

    Made a little more progress on the bed rack this morning. Just have to get a couple more pieces of pipe to make cross bars and then it'll be ready to go.

    Found some time to get the crossbars cut and welded in and everything welded up. Now just time to clean it up and paint it and it'll be ready for my RTT to be back up on it!

    went to a buddy's tonight who has a plasma cutter and got the hole for the spindle cut out and all the panel pieces for the side of the bumper cut out as well. Hoping to weld everything together in the next couple days.

    Depends on your budget. I have a Hobart 210 MVP and it was like $900. It does well for me. Some people like Miller which is an awesome brand and some people like Lincoln. What is an approximate budget you have for one?
