Chap 8 – The Grind Continues

Just a quick update.  I was prepared to do a full day’s worth of work & finish up the majority of the roll bar when I had friends stop by unexpectedly.

Before my visitors arrived, I spent about 45 minutes cleaning up all the welds with the Dremel Tool and a half dozen cutoff wheels.  I then switched to heavy duty abrasive pads on the die grinder, which kept my air compressor in a constant ON state for another 45 minutes.

I’ve said it a myriad of times, and it seems to hold true:  I’m an ok weldor, but I’m an excellent grinder!  Ha!

Hopefully tomorrow I can get a bunch more done on this roll bar assembly.
