that looks haggard as hell lol

 

I love the fact you have a plasma cutter but no drill press

 

x 2

 

No ish

Plasma cutter ~$600+
dremel tool ~$20
file ~$5

LOLz

in related newz, I wish I had a plasma cutter, I'll trade you dremel and filez

 

the cobalt has factory tow spots? where the **** at? i have never seen them... never been stuck enough to need pulled out... besides in front of the house and i just left it there till the snow melted

 

****, ill trade him my variable speed 4ft drill press with carbide drills for his plasma cutter lol

 

Haggard is my favorite word!

 

 

I admire the 'DIY' because I love to fabricate things myself instead of just buying them..
However.. being an engineer.. it kinda concerns me haha.

Having a hole creates massive stress concentrations by itself, but a JAGGED hole adds to the problem twofold.

I hope you used a good grade of steel.. if not, that jagged hole might cause you problems. Heck.. even if you did use a good grade of steel, it might still cause problems.

I'm not bashing..!

 

even though your an engineer and a whole lot smarter than i am... common sense plays into this role..

the small holes/bolts used to bolt it on are the more likely to give first followed by the bumper support then the jagged hole. yes it causes stress points but i dont see it being the reason it would fail... at least not on a cobalt

 

I'm looking forward to the, "So I ripped the front of my car off." thread.

 

^^

Reminds me of this

omg i lose that video. its been bookmarked for a long time.

and yeah x2 on the waiting for destruction thread.

 

lol this isn't a ******* dumptruck, do you really think that hole is gonna fail pulling a cobalt. I mostly made this so I could pull the car back to my house when it broke down again, seems to happen alot lately

 

not a bad attempt at all I'll have to admit but I prefer my Powell hooks

 

I want to get a powell hook someday, just with the recent breakdown, i came up with this in a jiff. lol

 

ok im just gona say it


THAT LOOKS ******* STUPID


I was really hoping you were joking.

 

Sleeved, Forged, Studded, Ported, and a TVS, but not 100$ for john's hooks?

 

priceless
and dont worry about all the haters
atleast you tried

 

hahaha lol

 

to get the powell hooks do you just have to just call them or shoot him a message?

 

How much are they exactly?

 

msg john or rallyracer for more info

 

Go buy a decent dremel for like $50 or $60 and clean that hole out. Get rid of the red and paint it black. Why do you want a red tow hook? Just paint it black and it will look so much better.

 

you need the red for racing
