IH 350B Payhauler Truck

A little progress. Got the cab mounts finished for the Indy show.

Then came the bed pivots. Learned that super-glue will work as a clamp if you take it easy on feedrates. Great for odd shapes. Glued four pieces of brass together, milled, then heated with a small torch to release them. Then glued pairs to a plate, milled the sides, heated, and had my brackets done. Cut tubing and all-thread as a fixture while soldering brackets to mounting plate. Added pins with bolted tabs.

Added front towing bracket, hydraulic sight gauge (non-operating) and made pattern for bed.

It's about time we got some updates!

Nice work! The glue trick does work well. I have used that myself recently.

Keep the updates coming....
