I'll use some metal filler to give the efect of a pocket...( I'll bodge with some stuff to make it look good.... :lol:)... I s'pose it could be welded and I remachine it but there's nowhere round here that could do it... :dremel: Anyways when its all painted nice who will know?? Just completed the second pocket and its looking pretty good.... Coffee time.. :coffee: |

Go for it. If you were closer I'd weld it for you. Anyone else having a go at one of these I have about 8' of 6" bar and 12' of 5" bar I'll sell cheap but don't ask me to pack and ship it. Collection only. --- End quote --- |

John, If I were closer I'd be asking a favour....being the gent you are, thanks any way... :beer: So I pressed on with the job regardless of my major faux pas....( I think thats french for fook up.. Or summat like ) any way it all ended good....apart from adding a bit of cosmetic repair( filling up where I made the error..) its good to go.... I'm glad this isnt a paying job because of the length of time its taken....I think I underestimated just how much time it had taken.... Well here's some more photos, hope you like... :D |

No use beating yourself up you have still done good! Why not make a little shelf or holder that bolts in your faux pas? Just might work! |
