great fab skills
but did they consider the weight
he will need a cat engine to run that around (or a cad engine)
what is it to be used for?
not jumping i hope

Not only weight but for strength reasons I think this guy would have been better to have it milled from one piece on alot of his custom stuff. With his fab skills to, it probably would have been cheaper for him to have someone mill it while he fabed stuff for customers. Also he could have gone to aluminum to really decrease the weight and increase the strength.

why would it be stronger milled out of aluminum?

 

[Hickey]

Those parts are probably made of 16 guage steel. Pretty light.

umm.... aluminum is stronger by weight than steel
