[QUOTE="Mojavekid18, post: 83585, member: 815"] Frame is done! For me this was the most challenging part because i had to rely on other people to make it happen as i live in Ohio, it January, And my garage is not heated. Anyways i know the pics suck but the frame came out really good. 2 Coats of rustolieum satin-black hi-temp grill paint out of my 10$ Harbor Freight Spray Gun and its looking nice. I was really worried as it was my first time ever using a gun to spray paint but i guess i thinned it and got the paint volume adjustment right because it came out smooth without any runs and covered quick. As she was all blasted: [ATTACH]6425[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6426[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6427[/ATTACH] After:[ATTACH]6422[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6423[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6424[/ATTACH] And as a little bonus, i made myself a stand too. Its made of 16ga 3/4 tubing and 1"1/8sq tubing as the frame for the top followed with sheet metal. I made it look professional if i do day so myself, as it took alot of extra time and effort to taper the bottom out like that and notch the tube. But it was worth it because imo it came out great. I painted it at the same time as the frame with the same paint. I still need to find something rubber that i could use for the top of it though........... 1/2 fabbed up, in a wood jig: [ATTACH]6428[/ATTACH] Completed product (minus the rubber top): [ATTACH]6419[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6420[/ATTACH][ATTACH]6421[/ATTACH] Btw, sorry for the crappy pics all throughout this thread.
