Default Thought I'd share my new toy with my EVO brethren

I bought the plans for this off of eBay. It took me about 2 hours to cut all the parts, and another 3 hours to weld and assemble.
Decided to try it out while I warmed up the bike.



Here it is after my wife painted it.

About 200 bucks. To save money, you have to buy in sticks and sheets, so it's cheaper to build 2 of them, which I did. Just went in half on materials with a friend.
I think you can get one at HF for about 400 or maybe cheaper, but I looked at one of those and they are CHEAP, plus the jack is hand or foot pump only. Everything on mine except for the deck is made from 3/16" wall steel. The deck is 1/8" tread plate. Probably overkill, but a bagger weighs 800 plus.

Nice! It's making me jealous. I'm still crawling on the floor trying to see what I'm doing with my back cramping. How much were the plans on Ebay?

Cool

Wish I had one. Low ceiling in my room where I park the bike. Got to get down on the floor to work or clean. Nice job!
