so i finally decided to start making my bumpers for my jeep. i'm using some 3/16" to try and keep the weight down.
here's what i'm working with
started with this after a few cuts
thought the face was too tall so i took an 1 1/4" off
got a little farther today
couple other views
so far the bumper weighs less then a 100 lbs. i have a couple other pieces to cut and some bracing to put in along with a couple d ring to make out of 3/4" but it looks like i'm gonna make my goal of the completed bumper weighing in at less then 150 lbs. now i gotta decide if i'm gonna paint it or powder coat it
