Well, I compromised with myself this morning. I have been planning to design and build a new cross-member. I am simply running out of time, so this morning I took my cut-off wheel to the cross cross member.

I have to make two, most likely three trips to Oregon in the next month on family issues, so I am running out of work days. Too, my truck is 20+ miles from the welder, so the testing and fitting was going to eat up unavailable chunks of time.

I will finish up the cross-member next Wednesday when I can go to my buddy's house to use the welder.
