Home fabbed front bumper

Made this over a couple days and just wanted to put it out there for others who may be looking to do the same. its made from 1/4" rectangular tubing and 1/4" plate. Tube is 1/8" wall sch 40 pipe. Im looking at buying a stinger, supports, and radiator hoop from blue torch fab and welding it on. All in all I am very happy with it.

Thanks BESRK you have inspired my fabbing skills! I built my rear swing out with parts from you and following parts of your write-up. now a couple years later I decided to make a matching front after I couldnt find anything pre fabbed that I really liked.

Eagle, I really like the dimmensions. Did you use 2x3 rectangle tubing, or is it 2x4. Also what is your total width of the front bumper? Great work!
