Snowed in today, and plowed the lane. Spent some more time in the shop...
Finalized the sub frame and tacked together the bottom of the dump bed.
If you look closely, you'll see I squared up the subframe pivot arms (two pieces of angle welded together) to ensure that they will support the weight of the bed when pivoted up for dumping. Much of the weight will be on the two pivot points cantilevered out behind the tractor. Didn't want those members to bend.
