You're doing a good job, especially if it's your first time tackling something like that. We all gotta start somewhere....and under an old vinyl top is as good of a place as any! Keep up the good work.



Thanks for the kind words...I'm having fun learning to butt weld, and how to spend a few hours fabbing up these tiny pieces....I plan on getting it as good as I can, painting it, and then putting a black vinyl top over the mess!

Yep...I could see where you were keeping it covered up. Just gotta make sure no sparks get in one of those blankets and smoulder

Ya that's true, I do hang welding blankets over those blankets when I'm welding and grinding...I've got two 8 footers, seem to do the trick
