Thread: One Way To Build A '32 Hyboy

I thought I would show what these access plates look like before I weld them in. These are larger than what I usually put in but there is so much going on in this one area I want to make sure everything is accessible without disconnecting one thing to get to another. We start with a 3/8" plate then machine off to the thickness of the existing frame material. Then slip it inside the frame and rosette weld it in and weld around that lip, so the finished access panel is flush to the existing frame . Also on the other wall of the frame that I didn't molest, I put in another 1/8" plate that looks like the other side but isn't cut out. In my opinion it is stronger in that area than we I started hacking
