Yeah I know where's the pics?,
Haven't been that flash lately but at least now I have the steel.
size wise it'll be 1550 wide and 2000 long approx. This size will leave no off cuts.
Another good part is I can lift it on and off at will. say I need to Zinc coat it
just drive there and un load. The rear corners I'll 45. I'll cut it all up in the morning
and tack it together, not a high priority job, just a job I want done.
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
Nearly finished but having trouble transfering pics, roller has been tacked on in situ.
All eyenuts welded on down each side for tie off points, a few more smaller cross members.
Need to tack mesh floor on as well, the sides are being laser cut and should look trick.
, Pic wth clamp not 45ed for a reason Size is 1800 x 1350 mm.
Plus brackets for LED light bar and awning need to be welded yet as well,

Yeah coming along nicely, just welding in 37 degrees outside that I dont like, lol Kallen Check those clamps from "ozmestore" on Ebay
No need to Square roof rack , was 1 mm out as is corner to corner , happy with that. Roller off set on purpose, ticked off Laser cutter hasnt finished the sides yet.
Should all be ready for powder coating by end of the week.
Beats paying $1100 for a roof rack, main expense is the roof bars

Not sure I'd save weight as Rhino racks are ABS and alloy, so very light ATM.
Clamps are made from cast iron and clamp material up to 50mm, no idea how to put
up a link but ebay shop was ozmestore in S.A,. search of similar items may see cheaper price
