Re: drop deck flatbed
Hello ! A few work this week-end.
I made realize at work one foot of gooseneck in flat aluminum, 6mm thickness. Frames of gooseneck are made with L aluminium, recut, and will be bolted on the foot. I have to finish the other side and some details to obtain a complete gooseneck for my dropdeck flatbed... Last edited by quetzal42; 07-03-2016 at 04:32 PM. |
