Cut Parts and Assemble Side Frames
- Cut two front legs (use square mild steel; 17-1/2-in. long each), two back legs (use angle iron; 20-in. long each) and four side pieces (use angle iron; 24-in. long each).
- Cut a 45-degree angle on the back ends of two side pieces.
- These ends will match a similar angled end you’ll cut on both ends of the back piece.
- Weld one front leg, one back leg and two angle-iron side pieces, taking care to orient the angled ends of the top-most side pieces towards the back. This makes one side frame.
- Use a carpenter’s square to ensure the front legs, back legs and lower side pieces turn out square in relation to each other.
- Use this first frame as a guide for creating an identical second side frame.
- Pro Tip: While it’s not absolutely vital that the heights of various side-frame parts match the plans exactly, it’s vital that both frames match each other.
