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!

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.

Sure, after the christmas orders, come pay me a visit. I'd be happy to further assist you.

I know a great B&B you folks can stay at, and I can work with you to make them yourself. Not free of course, but you can say that you made them yourself.

I can do it cheaper, I stated that fact clearly. I will, I have even invited another poster to do so with me.

Not with those welds friend, I have already advised you to tig the welds after you have shown the pictures. It is not a personal attack, and for that amount that you want to charge, you better leave it to the pros.

If you want to make it personal, grab your mig, I'll grab my tig. I will lay sweet rows of dimes while you make bubble gum.

I am a pro, don't bite off more than you can chew, well chewing is a everyday thing to you.

With short of insulting you, I am trying to explain to you that your approach is not correct.

Go to a local fab shop and learn the difference between mig and tig welding SS. After your done there, find a local scrap yard.
