Dude no need to scream, I am knowledgeable about welding stainless...I also know it's a bitch...and just wondered about the hole since all of my tools are in Alaska. Your welds are far superior to mine...especially since I haven't played with welding since I retired from the Air Force back in 2000. The other question I had was concerning the diameter of the bar...what diameter is the stainless?

Re: STAINLESS STEEL LIGHT BAR ALL FABBED UP
I really like the way that turned out. I figure drilling oversize holes and installing rubber gromets would be the way to go. Like I said, don't pay no attention to the knuckleheads.

Exactly which measurements would you need off an H2? I'll get my calipers out!

Re: STAINLESS STEEL LIGHT BAR ALL FABBED UP
Welds? Those are welds? I thought those were pieces of bubble gum stuck all around there.
Sloppy mig work no doubt, grab a tig and make love to the metal. If your going to use 316 SS which is correct, try buy it at a local scrap yard. I bought many pieces that were once boat covers and turned them into new things.
Your on to something, but your price is out of this world. I can put these out for 175.00 bucks easy, even charge a 15 dollar polish fee for the peeps that want polished.
BTW or FYI, preheat 316 prior to mig, you can use dynabrade to get the brushed look back. Or if the number 7447 meansw anything to you.
Just a suggestion is all.
You better get busy, the winter months are slow around these parts. I might need the money and decide to produce these myself. You can produce them for much cheaper, you know it and so do I.
