some of you might care to look
i really just started less then a year ago doing any fab work, i know stuff isnt huge like building a chassis or anything, but that will come with time and money

i like feedback so tell me what a good/bad job im doing

budget boost pucks


things ive learned, make sure to measure everything, i ended up making 2 of the pucks smaller ID and they didnt fit first time

nutserts


for bens flat belly, havent installed them yet

square tube rockers


wish the rest of the rocker was more solid but came out good and will be easy to boatside down the road

rear bumper

 

ring


its TI and my gf loved it, made valentines day for this poor college kid alot cheaper

rock rails


front bumper


now finished off with a hoop, will get a winch plate and fairlead when adam gets the winch

bumper that finally got finished up and painted




tj body lift


half doors and rear bumper with hitch


my floor boards on the drivers side were crap, basically more holes then floor

patched those with 20 gage steel
built seat mounts, they mount to the rocker and the tranny hump, and will eventually be tied into a cage
brackets to mount seats, mounted seats
replaced the interior sans carpet

 

not bad....your welds on the rockers look good..

I'm a machinst/fabricator by trade...here is some pics of my stuff...

Shakle holders for the CJ's bumper...

Everyday at work I make parts as complicated as the ones below really tight tolerances (+/- .0001” sometimes, just to give you an idea a human hair averages at around .003” in diameter so cut a hairs diameter into three sections, then take one of those sections and cut it into 10 sections, one of those 10 is how close the part has to be on size…It’s a sickness and I love every minute of it...

 

actually the welds on the ouside of rocker came out pretty bad
they will hold but look like poop, the inside ones are much nicer

and as far as machining i just graduated from WPI so i know a little about machining, never done anything with that tight of tolerances tho

 

Just a friendly warning,

The moderators here do not care for foul language, and I see one of your post has been edited already.

You might want to make nice with them by checking your words once again in your last post.

 

i see that now
the first couple posts were actually a copy from another site
im sorry and will fix it all

 

the welds on your rock rails picture look good, thats what I was looking at...

 

Thank you. Makes our job easier when you do it right.
