Rayban33 - Hello tool DIY

[rayban33]

Hello, I have been on the site a few times and have seen some great stuff. Some projects look like you would need some pretty nice tools already to construct them.

I have been doing fabrication work since I was about 10 years old. I hate to say that I am 53 now. I have a pretty nice shop. Metal is my primary medium. I have quite a bit of welding equipment, but would like to get a metal lathe, and milling machine. I am starting to make some money on the side with welding, and general fabrication. My latest project was a fork lift attachment for a 4 wheeler. It uses the snow plow mount already mounted to the machine. The mounts are behind the rider so that all the weight is not on the front. He uses it for building rock walls, and firewood. I hope to learn, and share.

Hi Ray - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

The 4-wheeler fork lift attachment sounds interesting. Post some pics if you get a chance; I have a quad with a plow, and would like to take a look at your design.
