one for the wee-uns inspired by  barrel of fun marked up  barrel of fun cut made with a jigsaw  barrel of fun frame 25x50  barrel of fun the front and rear "suspension" will be attached thru the barrel to give a look of no chassis wanted a flat edge for a edge strip. clamped a 10mm plate to it and tapped with an 'ammer  barrel of fun looks much better in real life.  barrel of fun looking at the cut out section to become a bomber seat and made a stainless "roll bar" to go over the drivers head have big quad bike wheels for the back and some smaller scooter wheels for the back My girls are well excited and have even come up with flaming skull-heart graphics for the sides! |

over zealous grinding means that ive undercut these welds. they were full penetration but are thinned too far i feel.
am in the process of re-making them

Better safe than sorry mate -probably a bit late to say that when you've already set fire to yourself!
