Welcome from snow bound Colorado.
That frame looks great... wait a minute... that garage floor looks perfect! And...so does the rest of the shop. I dream of my garage looking like that.
I'll bet your build is going to look the same.

Re: New guy!

Great looking frame - your shop looks great too - mine has been that tidy a couple time - just never seem to be able to keep it that way for long though.

Re: New guy!

Yours looks just like mine, clean, organized, and everything painted or powder coated. The difference is yours is about 3 times as big. My gagage is only a single.

Welcome from Alabama. The frame looks good. Hope to have mine done later. Where did you get it sandblasted and powdercoated at?

I got it done in Memphis at Ricks powdercoating. I think he has a website. Thanks again for the big welcome!
