looks great 
I made this one last weekend. I also made the vent covers but they didn't turn out as good as I wanted. The rack is 2 inch aluminum angle and ½ inch aluminum rod.
That's pretty long there craigsvanwinkle, but will function properly. Like the beefy rods, I may need to buy some of those the next time I'm in Anchorage.
trikerider, looks good but could have been longer for other stuff to go in the back. Vents look ok, whatcha complaining about? Cheaper than buying from someone else if you have the material and know how. How many gallons is that tank? And from where?

Sorry about that craig van sickle! Haha, just zoomed through your name, thinking by my short memory. Guess I'm tired out too, something that goes along with having 4 kids, and other chores that need to be done.
looks super good ,ingenuity is the mother of invention or so

OOOOOOO pretty. Nice work, its looks like the cross shafts are adjustable front to back yes? That would be nice for different size bags and what not.
Very Nice work ! I guess I need to check out the new Ace store they just built here!

The Tank is from my Vertical Escape and it's one that was recalled back in 2002-2003 but I got one before the recall. I think its 2.25 gallons, not sure though. Between the seat bag and my pack I think I have a place for all my stuff. If not I will make a longer one or just one more.

Sweet, Little long for my tastes, but I like it, especially that you bought everything at Ace haha
Cant wait to see the list.
Cant wait to see the list.
They are blanks that come in some of the equipment at work. We remove them to install the modules and usually they get thrown away.

Did a cheapo for my 03' Summit - about $40 for 1" angle and 3/8" tubing from HD. Keeps the spare gas and bag off the cooler.
