Built a winch mount for me buggy this weekend. Used a 4.5" grinder with flapper disc and cut off wheels, 2" holesaw and measuring tools. Trying to show that you can build something nice without a stupid amount of tools kinda thing.
Here's my tip...How many times have you used a hole saw and trown out the piece of metal that you cut out? I reused them as reinforcement washer.
Then I drilled the holes out to the proper size with a unibit.
I then Bolted them into the place I wanted to weld them into.
TIP: bolt in an oversized nut to absorb heat from the welding, this will help keep from gaulding(sp) the nut on.
