Iām building a uds for my buddy Chris it made if 1/8āā diamond plate
Grate adjusters
The bad thing is the thing aint really round its kinda tear drop shaped so in order to make it look right I had to make the grates
I have to one up Chris so I thought I would make the casters I gotta pick up a wire wheel for the die grinder to clean the wheels up before paint

Denny,
Did you roll the diamond plate?
Dude the build looks great so far!
I can't wait to see what other kinds of killswitch spins you put on this uds.  _________________ SEE YA!

killswitch, looking good .
The diamond plate should give it a very cool look.
The grates have a couple of tacks on them.
Can't wait to see how it shapes up. |

Looking right on Denny! That thing is going to have some weight on it for sure. If you wheels dont work out, you could always stop by Chuckied's and hijack the cart he has made for Bruce's UDS Looks awesome man, looking forward to following the rest of it. _________________ X2 Finished Build

killswitch, Looking good.
You should tell your friend to decide where it's going now, I wouldn't wanna move it too many times, looks a little heavy. |

Denny, I am loving this build. I love the hinged lid that is going to be a nice add on. If I lived closer Chris may be out of luck cause I would jack that bad boy. Very nice work I look forward to seeing some more pics and updates.  _________________ Always remember slow and steady wins the race.

Denny,
You know if you lived closer, I would just have one more excuse to tell Bruce... someone stole it!
I was going for an industrial look on Bruce's, but after seeing this build
Poor Bruce is only getting the small business edition!
That lid is awesome bro.  _________________ SEE YA!
