Default Guy has roll cage built around cab to protect against rollovers...

Shop delivers this giant pile of ****

Welds - Imgur


Pulled this from Reddit, thought you guy would get a kick out of it. Story is he had a local mom and pop fab shop build this cage for him to protect against rollovers. I'm assuming it's some sort of part-time crawler of sorts. This is what the shop delivered.

Dear lord.. looks like it was "welded" out in the rain. I would be fired in a second if I turned out one weld like that.
