Oil box coming along

From stock plate to plate panels.



Went to town with an angle grinder, probably not the best way to cut 14g. But I'm not about the best way, as long as it gets done, it was done the right way.


At this point I did try to just bend the corners around the table with some map gas. after about a minute I realized that wasn't going to work and I was going to have to weld all sides of the box. 
Oh well, it makes more sense to go this route rather than bending it. mainly because I can wait to put the top on until I pick up a filler cap, and feed line bungs. Drilling those holes after welding the box together would be a nightmare.



TAPE! I was getting antsy, and the night was close to expiring.






I gotta say, I am pumped for this. Can't wait to get the mig in to this relationship. Its been about 4years since I have touched one. Let hope it goes well.
