Re: What do you guys think?

You should just leave the frame in bare metal and clear coat it. It would be a crime to cover that beautiful work up...

Re: What do you guys think?

From a welding instructor I would say you pass! Nice job. Not only on the welding but the fab. being a good welder is one thing but being able to engineer the whole thing is quite another trade in itself.
So we know that you have a syncro 250 and a model 3 bender. But what other tools do you use to fab those nice cuts. Your bag plates look very precise for a garage shop.

Re: What do you guys think?

I didn't see a water jetter tucked in the corner of your garage. Maybe I missed it. I like the clear coat idea. are you going to paint or powder coat? As always looks awesome.
