Made one of these...
« on: May 11, 2020, 07:06:18 AM »
Old one broke, too thin to weld.  Not wanting to go to the store, I made a new one out of 3/16" steel.  I think it will last...

"Knowing" how to weld is a bit subjective!  Not the prettiest welds in the world (AC stick), but they usually hold.  I can repair things fairly well; trailers, farm equipment, etc. and do a bit of fabrication.  This winter, I built steel deck rails, and have built a few custom parts for various projects...

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
