Project Front bumper..

[The Patrolman]

Got a bit more done today:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

A bit more welding and Voila:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

Not a bad fit if I do say so myself:lol

Just need to take it off and seam weld it and fit the two bracing tubes ready for galvanising and powder coating:thumb2

 

[don simon]

Looks good.

 

[elty001]

Looking good :thumb2
I've got my front bumper laser cut, need to get it folded and tacked up for trial fitting .
Also got the rear one in the same stage.

 

[The Patrolman]

Cool. I went for the origami approach as I do not have easy a cess to a bender...

 

[Barrbeast]

Looking good :thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

Blagged a bit of tube today:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

Tomorrow I will be mostly......."Welding!"

 

[solarman216]

you mean that you did not have the tube before you welded those 4 brackets, and they all lined up perfect? Rick

You sound suprised:nenau

You sound suprised:nenau

I am very much so, I have been welding for very many years and know only too well how much a weld can pull a bracket about, so yes I am amazed, Rick

 

[elty001]

I like that :thumb2
Not sure weather or not to put a tube section of mine when it eventually gets folded :lol

I checked it by eye when it was tacked up so it should be ok:thumb2

To be honest Rick, I didn't even contemplate the idea that it wouldn't line up:doh

Lady luck was with me on this one!

I should've known better with a HND in fabrication and Welding Engineering:doh

 

[spinna]

That's coming along nicely

weldin' went ok:thumb2

 

[The Patrolman]

I decided against getting it galvanised n powder coated.

Good old fashioned paint, and lots of it, Quick drying Chassis enamel.
