Im going to knock out some plans for this thing this week and get going. Im going to look into aluminum pricing to estimate a price there. Otherwise stainless it will be. THen I will probably do a striahgt across style as well as the cross bar as an add-on. Stay tuned

Ya welding aluminum isnt the issue. Its going to be the price. And stainless will look good anyway. Will probably offer a powdercoating option if I can find a good place here.
