Thank you guys. I am very proud of this gate. Tickled me to death to see this massive gate stood up and both sides together. Its really nice to be given the opportunity to take pride in the things i build instead of in a factory where quality isn't important but quantity is.
WOW Justin, that hand railing is seriously cool! Wish I had those skills. Sorry to hear about the poor powder coat on the gate. Gonna suck to get all the old powder off I would guess.
To be honest rob i have no idea what he charged. ofcourse he is bitchin about not gonna make any money blah blah blah like always. The way he talks i make more off these projects than he does. I have about 15 hours in this little deal. those basket things were a freakin bitch to get in there and make it look right considering the pickets dont run through them. They are butted up on both sides. The double baskets really sucked lol. If you cant see it in the picture the top and bottom channels were punched so the pickets run through them and then welded where you cant see. You cant see a single weld in this entire project.
