Lee welded the spit together last week and has been moaning at me to put the pics up.

It's a bit heavy with the glass and doors still attached but it's holding 8)

How do you go about getting it up there?

 

sky hooks and brute force ( well twink's got a fair bit of weight behind him, and in front come to that!!) :wink:

Fook me! That looks well unstable :shock:

 

TBH I'd want that a lot wider, with the two ends joined together too!

 

 

thats what we thought but its the only way it went together to get the height needed to put it on its side. given it a good few shoves and it doesnt move. we were talking about linking the two ends together though it doesnt really seem to need it :thumbsup:

Hope the weldings good :mrgreen:

 

Me and my mate made mine, well I say 'we' as in he made it and i re-made it.

 

He was supposed to be top welder boy, done it for years in work, can't get better welds than his :roll: so I thought well at least if he does it, will be strong and tidy welds

:? yeah right, after car been on spit for a few hours welds were popping off left right and centre :shock::shock::shock:

 

Needles to say car came back of and I re-done all welds with mig on high to get proper penetration, had half a dozen scorts on there now, some staying on for long times all with no problems :thumbsup:

 

Well handy bit of kit, more than worth the time to make :mrgreen:
