I won a t-case bucket from rockrat (thanks scott!) at the last zookimelt, so I figured this would be the perfect opportunity to use it...  ;D

I used my "old school" Trail-tough beefed stock arms....

The laser cutting leaves little "slots" on the inside and I didn't want to leave a place for water to lay..... But I also didn't want to put any heat to it without it being bolted to the case (in fear of warping it) so I coated the seams of the inside with some caulk....
Then I sprayed on some primer and hammered silver...  [approve]
