My homemade sliders

Just wanted to post a few pics of my sliders I just finished yesterday. I still need to clean up the welds, prime and paint, but the hard works done. ABout $100 in materials and a FULL day. I got the idea for the expanded metal from NCFJ. I'll post some pics when I get them on.
