Homemade....Let's see what you've made

[cutlass]

real simple, wife hated the way the trash can looked,

Also build various props for a local theater

Also used to make ammo can portable speakers that would last almost 20hrs without charging

That ammo can speaker setup is really cool.

They both look good [MENTION=110316]wayfinch[/MENTION]. I personally like square tubing better for the roof rack as long as it is kept low profile. Plus with square tubing there is less notching to do on square tubing.

That's what i was thinking. I'm keeping it low pro, I kinda want to do something like the gobi rack stealth/ranger. just haven't decided the best way to go about it. I do know ill be making blue prints / build plans for anyone that wants them when I'm done. Will also probably make a jig for it so I can reproduce the rack for other T4R guys.

Outboard rear shocks

The bracket looks awesome!! I really do like those shocks too, I saw when they announced them and was curious how they'd perform.

Ill post this again...Im pretty happy with myself lol!
Complete rear storage, inverter, air compressor, table, cooler platform, and sub setup.

Nice! That's super slick, looks great. I love the power and air integration- nice work.

[MENTION=107971]derpiful[/MENTION] I read good reviews on them so I decided to try them out myself. So far I have zero complaints. I would like to maybe adjust the air pressure a little lower so my rear suspension can suck up some of the bigger stuff a little more. For daily driving on the street they are absolutely amazing. I had stock shocks when I first got my 4Runner, then lifted with LC shocks which rode absolutely terrible and now these are perfect.

Again not car related but made this sliding barn door to seperate our two living rooms. Made out of about 30 year old wood from my wives child hood porch they were tearing down

Thanks. I've carried that look around the rest of the house.

Made out of some super old pine

 

[stevets]

Made this roof rack for my Tuff Stuff tent. Pretty happy with the results and, most importantly, it works. I've done some utility welding before but this was the first project that had to both work good and look good.

What did you use to attach the rack to the roof rails?

 

[mark21742]

Built and got my full size roof rack mounted! 98" x 50" so i can carry a sheet of drywall or anything else fully supported.

Damn that's tall! You could put chairs up there and charge people for safari tours.

10 inches from top rail down to the roof. I had to take out my rear springs and sit the axle on the bumpstops to clear the top of my garage door lol.

I built it to haul drywall, plywood or whatever, plus will make a nice place to throw sleeping bags and camp out on!

I made this new front bumper that my tires don't rub on anymore. I know some folks might be hesitant to tackle a job like this but you can do it!

That looks like a pretty involved project. It gives the rest of us some inspiration to follow through on a detailed job to its completion! I love the touch of class it adds to the truck too.
