a friend of a friend said he had some expanded steel for me for free earlier this year so ive been waiting on that... buut he cannot be bothered to live up to it so all my waiting time i have spent letting it rust.
i didnt want to paint it until i was finished welding (except of course light brackets but thats an easy weld and paint).

so now i need to get it removed from my roof and grind everything down myself and paint it. i will be trying to tackle this after i move and get settled into my family property.

thanks to the guy making me wait all summer i no longer have the option of my work sandblasting and painting it for free seeing as this wednesday is my final day there before i start my new job
