Ok not really but I sometimes go off on a tangent and do some non-auto related fab work for customers. I did this a few months ago but just got around to DL the photos from my phone.

Yankees baseball insignia. Made from 3" x 5/16" 316L stainless bar stock, hand formed and rolled, full tig joints and made seamless. Built for a landscaping job, and was buried in a cement stone dust walkway up in Lake George. Only part that shows is the very top edge which has a directional brushed finish.

Pictures are shitty, but taken from my BB in a hurry. I’ve done quite a bit of this offshoot stuff from sprial stairwells to loading racks, DOT work, etc. Kinda fun for me as it doesn’t have the tedious stuff related to cars.

Right because working with others is way more annoying than having a bunch of overweight forum people stare at him while he welds a cage.
