Yeah the tubes will be capped but haven't cut the discs yetLike, but I would suggest you need to plate the feet, otherwise you will be filling the tubes with tarmac in summer.certainly look nice and stable.

Pretty good but definitely needs the swag off-road "reach around" to make it a little more versatile for some higher angle cuts
I have the jd2 model 32 bender as well that I got from STAKESYS metal work, very good gear, expensive but you get what you pay for I think

It's 1mm plate. As long as you have a good thickness top bar it's OK. Got to make a fuel cell mounting box next. Same material. Same method. 1mm 1.5 is about max. Any thicker then serious weight and force is needed...Utilised, very impressive.

I always work centre out.I have lines marked out on the round tube to make sure it's square. Have got to make another one that sits under the main tunnel as a reinforced plate.set up as is the flat top bar clamping down could be persuded with a tap from a copper mallet, work from centre out wards, so to make sure its set home so to speak.love that ,using whats to hand

just a thought if you need to do a thicker one might need some "help" to get it just so.

I managed to make the reinforced plate for the tunnel. Almost a snug fit.

Have not made it yet as need more materials. But marked out where the wishbone to floor pan/ bulkhead strengthening plate will attach to.

I recently got around to finishing off my trolley for the Miller 600 with a bit of chequer plate for the top and put a bit of sheathing on the torch to help slow down the damage to the air hose and cable assembly. Much easier to lug around now than before and the thing has a certain rugged charm.
The top also gives me somewhere to plonk the second power source or a wire feeder depending on what needs to be done. Just needs some hooks added front and back for hanging cables and the mains flex and I can call it done.
