Default Rust Bucket

Hell Richard thats what I call a rust bucket,I dont think that I have ever come accross one as bad as that one, I guess that we are lucky up here at least the place is bone dry, I have come across lots of them down south in the rain forest country but thats about the worst I have ever seen, full marks to your friend in building carriers from scratch,can you post any pics of his workshop set up and production methods jigs etc? I know all of us here would like to see how he builds them,its a project that I want to do some day,
Thanks again Regards ron
