Today I took the 6 pieces of 1″ square tubing purchased at a local metal shop for $9 and cut out the pieces required for the welded assembly.
Tool of the day was at my neighbors. I had a metal chop saw for a while, but sadly it was James’ and so it’s no longer in my Garage. I setup and measured all the pieces I’d need from the 6 24″ lengths of 1″ sq tube.
Neighbor setup a working table for me to measure and debur and you can see on the floor the finished pieces as well as some left-overs.
The last photo (without the book) is the assembly table where we’ll start to tack weld and assemble. Ended the day today with all pieces ready and marked for assembly. Tomorrow we (neighbor) welds.
