Man in the pics is a good friend Danny. He is a great paint and body man as well.
More pics of the base table. Not all done, but all tack up. Need to add cross bracing and mounting tabs ect...

Hope you like it.

This is it all setting together. Starting to look right. I beams still need to be cut off and welded down to the table. I will then make and mount the V rails then things should start to move around. The main control box is mounted on the left side and all cable chain supports are done as well. Let me know what you think or option you mat have, enjoy the pics.
