I'm about 4-6 months behind you if all goes well.

Thanks for the update, keep them coming!

Beautifully engineered. It will be great to see the finished product. Great step-by-step fabrication pics.

putting the frame together today

my wife says it looks pretty square

davebig · 01-18-2013, 04:33 PM

That swing arm pivot is very nice, probably over kill but very nice ! plug welded in the frame !!!!!!! You must have a very large dog your planning on hauling around. Don't tell me let me guess your building a work sidecar your mounting a Lincoln SA 200 and several hundred feet of welding cable and your going pipe-lining ? Your a credit to your father.DB
