Another day filled with welding and grinding.

Welded

Found that my multimode welder really didn’t like to weld the plate in the MIG mode so I found myself using good old stick.

Still got it...

Turned out far better than I expected, to be honest. At least I can still weld better than I can knit...

Covered in Cold Gal, waiting for etch primer and some paint...which will, of course, get rubbed off. But not in the imperfections that will still catch crud...

Some rust p rotection is all that's needed now and this job can be crossed off the Very Long List Of Shit To Do.

Ever try one of those roll on bedliners?

No...I don’t think I’ve ever seen it sold down here. Not sure how well things slide on it too. Things need to slide on this tray as it is a tipper!

I used to run rubber matting on the alloy tray of the Transporter but the Sun got to it eventually.

Wouldn’t be great if it has to slide, leaves a gritty surface, great for traction.
