Well done sir. As others said looks pretty heavy. Did you happen to weigh it.

No i didnt way it. the tubing weighs roughly 2lbs a foot and I used roughly 30 feet. SO my guess would be that he bumper totals weighs in the 80lb range. Thats purely a guess. I know my Plate steel bumper on my rig is 75lbs with no tire carrier so i dont think this one is really that heavy at all.

You've got some skills. Nicely done. I bet you would get quite a few orders for one.
