Already built the fire poker, and a lid lifter for the dutch oven.
Stumpy,
Post some photos of your new creations. We're all big fans of your work. It may even inspire me to take a break from my busy schedule of web wheeling and start welding

TIPM
Totally Ineffective Power Module.
They anticipated other electrical failures with the headlight being the warning shot.

I've had two cars replaced through lemon law and will play the card if it comes to it.
It has to be "VOR" for 30 days (non-consecutive is okay) or in for the same safety repair 3 times and not fixed within one calendar year.
This is a week if it's ready on Tuesday.

While this isnt exactly Jeep related, it is kind of expo related. And, its my build thread, so I dont care.
I needed to do this first, since we have Country Fried Weekend coming up soon, and the dogs got tired of laying on top of firewood in the back of the Jeep on the way to camp. So, I built a basket to haul firewood in/trash bags out, or whatever else for the top of my popup camper.
This is all 3/4 tube, 16 gauge wall.
Getting it laid out:
A little bender time. Using my mechanical/ratcheting Ridgid 368 bender. Works awesome!
Got a little practice with the notcher, 34 notches in all.
Getting it welded up...
Got it finished, painted and mounted.
Next up, pics of the Stumpy Limited edition - Official poker of the South East Expedition Society - fire poker, and lid lifter for the new dutch oven.

I fabbed up this Chainsaw holster/mount a while back and had it on my old trailer. The last two times we went camping, I have needed the chainsaw, but didnt have it. Now I will.
Holds it pretty darn tight, and protects the blade.
Of course, its lockable.
Bring on the Zombie Apocalypse!
As promised, the FIRE POKER:
And, the dutch oven lid lifter. I stole the basic design from Lodge, they make and sell a similar one. The two little legs keep the lid stable when lifting, so as to not disturb the charcoals.
