Not necessarily on the bench but that's where it started. I finally got around to mounting the front and back LED work lights and the turn/hazard lights and the red tail lights. This is for the cab enclosure that I fabricated a while back. I still need to get glass put in it so if any of you guys have any suggestions let me know.
Here's a shot of the front

And the back

Here's the small 3/4" penny lights in red and amber at the back. I also installed amber ones on the front of the cab so as to cover all 4 corners.

And the switch box I fabbed up. All the wiring is going into black plastic loom to tidy it up

That's how we keep it simple around here

Wow. When I did my small bit of por on my frame I wore gloves and was exceedingly careful and didn't get a drop on me. I then took my gloves off and went to clean up and picked up the can and got it all over my hand. I just left it and waited for the skin to die. You seem to have removed the affected skin :eek:
 
Well im blaming my wife as she left this sponge in the shower called the majic eraser. It worked great. I was like por15 got nothing on me..... Till i got out of the shower.. [emoji35] [emoji35] [emoji35] [emoji35] [emoji35] lol

You used the magic eraser? No wonder. That is basically sand paper. Good times.
 
This one just came off the bench.

This L shaped bench resides in an old truck box that used to be a liquor delivery truck with old cutty shark markings on it under layers of old paint. This bench needs some spring cleaning again. :eek:

If I walked into that I would be like the kids in the Goonies when they dropped into the cave where One Eye'd Willies ship was anchored.
 
This is the best spot weld cutter I ever used. It cuts around the spot weld and you can feel when it gets through the first layer of metal. I think I bought mine from Eastwood.

I have one of those. LOVE IT! I got mine from Summit. Just get extra bits for it.
 
Unfortuantely spot weld cutters only work when you can see the spot weld itself.
A lot of this bed stuff had rust... and pitting... and pits look like spot welds and a lot of time has been spent trying to figure out what is going on.

I do have spot weld cutters too like that, they are good, just not practical all the time sadly.
