that's looking very nice. What wall thickness tubing are you using - .120?

I'm using .120 wall DOM on all the structural parts. I plan on using HREW for bracing and triangulation to maybe save a penny or two. SCSA only keeps .095 HREW in stock. I believe that will suffice if I don't use it as a main piece of the chassis, just bracing.

Mike, Scott is in Atlanta for the weekend, so I can't get over to look at his Rocks till next week.

Got another piece cut and bent this evening. This is the rear frame section. I will bob the frame and cap it. Then weld this piece straight to the cap. Still have a lot of cleaning and grinding to do. Guess I'm probably on hold fabricating till I can get some plates.

Have not made much head way, but not because I have not wanted to. I've been covered up this semester with topic papers, essays, and research papers. Then juggling an internship co-op, I have not had any spare time to burn metal:crying:.
