Re: Homebuilt "C"notch kit.?.?.?.
Mr79C10,
You are absolutely right, but you gotta do what you gotta when money is tight and times are hard... I just got a few new bits last night and I might be able to do some nice finishing on these pieces after all is said and done. Biggest thing holdin me back is time...... |

Re: Homebuilt "C"notch kit.?.?.?.
looks great
,but dude you are going to have to get someone to shear those or find someone with a plasma cutter. that had to take forever with a grinder not to mention the tingling in your joints after you were done.

Re: Homebuilt "C"notch kit.?.?.?.
Face,
you are right as you can be, it is loud, my hands ache, and my ears are still ringing from 2 nights ago.....BUTT......I just gotta do it myself. (call me a stubborn redneck) I put myself on an unreasonably low budget to see just how much I could get done with the money allowed. Beside that, I'm a cheap skate too.

Re: Homebuilt "C"notch kit.?.?.?.
I'm going ahead with this project...
Got some clamps out today and started drilling holes for mounting. Anyone care to give advice on what size hardware I need to use? All input is welcome. Agree or disagree ! ! ! ! ! |

Both of the c-notches I have came with 1/2" & 9/16" grade 8 hardware.
