Between the bad weather and my wife's health issues, I have not made much progress lately. It was pouring rain this morning, but the sun came out just as I was getting home from church so I took it as a sign and dug out the welder.

We picked up a tubing bender, but all it did was mangle and crimp the pipe. I ended up cutting up the elbow that I got for the tip to make the y-pipe to muffler section.

I am overall happy with the progress. It is not as beautiful as some exhausts I have seen, but it is a lot better than the last one I made and it will function. Having lost a couple feet of pipe to the bender, it won't reach the hanger yet. I need to get another chunk of pipe before I can finish installing it.
