I found an early tub-fabrication photo for you:

I think that car in the background in hiding under (behind) the table.
Damm that is one killer looking wheel tub, and huge too.

I love this pile of tools.
I wonder who is screaming or crying more (over this photo) Rodger or Kyle?
Rodger hates a mess, and Kyle (DSE) insists that all photos be taken in a clean environment. (I bet Rodger didn't take this photo)
AND it reminds me how many tools it really does take to fabricate something, plus it makes me feel ok, when I look at my pile of tools, in the middle of some project task. Thank God I don't have to work under a time clock.

Looks like the tools needed to build the supports and pile of Custom C6 control arms. Plus the adjustable radius brake that Erik made for doing fuel tanks. I think Brycen took those pics though.

I don't really know if the opinion of a 22 year old matters, but the quality and craftsmanship of you guys' work is phenomonal and super inspirational!!!

This car is unbelievable in person.
I encourage anyone in the S. Calif area to stop by Ironworks and say hello.
The metal work going on in that shop is phenomenal.
You can't buy tubs like those from DSE...... and the cost is slightly higher

hey actually if you look in the bottom left corner of the picture is my right hand, which means that i didn't take the picture. and if you take a picture of the project while its in progress your going to have a "mess". and if theres no mess theres no work being done.
