Made these when I was 12 /13 Bar Bodgin

When I was a kid about 12 I made these bars  :LolLolLolLol: They were originally burner bars I think then if I remember correctly I attacked them with a scaffold bar and rebent them  ;) Then cut the v brace out  ::) Then cut up a piece of tube from god knows  :-\ Then filed it and arc welded it in  8) But as I recall I had never used a welder before just watched my mates dad then used his welder 2 do the job when he wasn't about :daumenhoch:  They r Bollox bars but they will never leave me  :smitten: One of my first proper bodges  :coolsmiley:
