smashed out some progress! i don't know why, but i love the frame "kit" picture.
i also managed to fixture the main rails and get the rear legs welded on before realizing they were backwards

the miter at the front end went out vs in. lucky for me, i still need to cut the rear to length, so i just re-mitered the front and lost 1/2". redid the 3D and we're good.
and tonight it's a whole thing! tack welded and ready to start crossmembers. also need to get Colin to cut my plate soon!
