3DB Crawler build by Cutlerfab

mcutler · Dec 31, 2018

Added some branding to the new fender. It will have some stainless mesh on the back later. Learned the bend radius dimensions after 1st run, adjusted the drawing on this run, bent out in perfect x/y dims. Doesn't sound like much, but it really is from a fab stand point= less time and tweaking. Glued the skin to the tube with some silicon bronze; it blends much easier being a softer material; and less heat in the sheet metal.

Also had some time to draw the tailgate opening replacement...

Thats the type of stuff I like to see, actual application to make a better product. Seems like lots of people spend more time dicking with a plasma table for "one off" flat bracket stuff that could be cut by hand.

Sorry to be, "that guy," to resurrect an old thread...a very old thread. I just read through this build and was sad to send it come to an halt without an end...

I have no doubt you knocked this YJ out of the ballpark. Any chance we could see some of the finished product?

It's still here, was pushed to the back of the line to finish a couple rollers. Owner is big in dirt tack racing, and is in no rush. It'll be back in the shop in about 6 weeks. I'll update with more progress when I get rolling on it again!
