well the bumper is done and well it came out ok but it was my first bumper build, learned a lot......like , one little flaw in a sander disk and it will fly apart. All and all I'm happy with it....all I really wanted was a bumper for tow points and a receiver hitch for the winch. Next is to build a rear with a swing out tire rack, 2 tow points and a receiver hitch. Cant wait to test it out and see if it holds up! :D

Like about 4 days and like 2-3 hrs a day.... I had to strip off all the paint on the steel and that look like a day. The rest was just getting use to my welder and the wire feed... I mostly TIG. I use the MIG at work for quick fixes and building little stuff around the shop.
