wow gene im impressed we cant even make things like that in our metal shop. only f-15 parts.we have a tube bender.flaring machine,a couple af mandrels,drill press, band saw,srinking and streching machine and a hydrolic roller to curve metal.we do alot of custam fabrication for these flying bricks.he he but that gate is nice.how much did you charge for it?
I charged $1499.00 for the gate alone, delivered (within 50mi.). He also had me weld it up for $100.00. I don't know what the contractor charged the home owner. Sure wished I had access to a shop like the one you described, I would be havin some fun.
i would have charged 1800 for it.and ya the shop is fun,but i hate most of the people that i work with ,there pricks. but i can come in on the weekand and use the tools for car part fabrication like floor pans for exsample.hmmmm that sounds like a good idea. holy cr*p i spelled every thing right!
