Can you make me a crossmember?

Not sure if you've been following my project thread (linked in sig)
or the trouble im having to get this crossmember built for me....

but can you help?

ive been waiting on someone to make me this crossmember for a couple months now, and it NEEDs to get done soon.

its not tooooo complicated of a part.

just a tube needs to get bent (or if that isnt easy for you guys, i can modify the design so it can just be welded sections as well)

1.5x1.5" 1/4" w/t square steel tube.
or 1.5" dia 1/4" w/t round tube if you prefer.

i know you dont do laser cutting in-house, but i also need the tabs shown in the screenshots below made for me as well.

and i want you to weld it all up for me too.

is this possible?
what kind of time do you think it will take you? i can provide CAD drawings in most formats, and am available to answer any questions by phone.

please let me know! thanks!!


and the screenshots




OR with round tubing






and how it is going to be used











i have more details to mention if you think you can help me. let me know thanks!!

Re: Can you make me a crossmember?

holy shiitballs!

how bout you pack your bags and come work for us?

provide us with a blueprint with all the angles and measurements. we do have our own tube bender and laser, so the round tube version would be easier.
