That’s a lot of labor! Enjoyed your comments on the bumper as a first time project. Built tube bumpers for my Cherokee in AZ about 15 years ago. A friend who knows how to weld did the fab. He now has that Jeep, still going strong. Nicely done video.
I built one for my tacoma, I think it took about 20 hrs of work,including disassembling the stock bumper, building the coastal ,welding, grinding, paint and reassembling with lights and light bar...
amazing video brother. great fabrication. Did you charge for this job?? if so how much because my buddy wants me to fab one of these up for him. i will be tig welding it together
I did charge for this job. Tig welding will take you drastically longer to complete. My video shows the hours it takes, now come up with your hourly rate!
@@jreg0028 by cheapest welder if you are referring to a flux core, I might say do stick. Could probably get some nicer welds. But you can get a used mig machine for not too expensive

So what do you think about using the cheapest harbor freight wire welder vs stick welding? As a beginner.
