Well, yesterday actually. wink
Finished fabrication on replacement stake pocket stops for the bed of my truck. I removed the original mangled stops and was able to bend one back into close to original shape to be able to get dimensions for fabrication. Cut them out of 16 ga stock with a sawzall, drilled the holes and then took the blanks to a local panel fab shop my company had done work with. They used their 230 ton capacity Cincinatti computer controlled press brake to bend them up for me (they did the small job gratis - it's good to have contacts grin )
Here's a shot of the completed pieces waiting to be welded in place, along with the pattern piece.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
