May I ask ballpark what the fab shop charged?
Will you be adding walls?

The fab shop bill for materials and labor was $137.00 plus $12.00 for two cans of spray paint. It took me two evenings after work to trim, assemble, weld and paint the pan. Then about 2 hours this weekend to rent an engine hoist for $10.00 to slip the pan underneath it. Oh, I machined four 3/4" inch blocks with a 1/2" hole in each one to raise the machine up off the pan, I had some scrap laying around for that. Because I didn't plan ahead back in September, the four mounting bolts that I bought originally were a 1/2" too short now. So I had to buy $8.00 in new bolts ( I got some slightly used 5" 1/2" X 7/16" bolts I'll make someone a heck of a deal on! )
