Figured I would give it a shot my brother is my welder and he is currently out in North Dakota for work. Don't know when he is coming back so I guess I have to learn. Your new camera takes some nice pictures.

Re: Here we go!!!

Posted via Mobile Device Today I got some stainless steel gas struts....mocked up a couple brackets and I still need to make a piece to weld to the hinge at the top. So far I'm happy with the way they work.
