Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
That bed looks sick, you do really nice work. The motor you are planning is going to be a beast. This is going to be a crazy ass truck, I can't wait to see it done.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
You gonna leave the dimpled holes open? Or maybe some mesh like this on the backside?

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
You may have deviated from the rendering, but that's the price you pay when you're creative. Nice change.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Thanks guys here is my plan for the holes. I like the mesh but it has been done as most things have. So I am going to back the holes with polished stainless I think it will really pop next to the orange and the polished bed strips and tank.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
I am also thinking about changing the wood to something different. I am just not a big fan of oak.
