    Bifold door for my shop

    all that is needed now is to install the sheet metal
    The East door of my shop has been closed in by a roll up tarp door for quite some time now it was a quick and easy way to block the wind but a royal pain to open and close due to the requirement of having to have 4 inch loading straps strung inside and out side to prevent the tarp from being destroyed I always knew it was a temporary fix so for the past week I have been constructing a suitable replacement.
    As always I try to use scrap materials whenever possible, and in this build many of the pieces of pipe for the frame were no longer than 2 feet. a lot of beveling of the ends and many welds to make them 15 feet long but hey the pipes were otherwise mostly too short to be of much use for many things anyway. some of the pipes were 10 to 12 feet though so it saved me some welding
