Default I'm broke and old school

Was searching the web pretending i had the ability to build buggy from scratch and came across this on YT. Now I know for sure I'm poor and very old school.

I was taught how to do this on paper and cut it out with a cutting torch. Depending how good you are with the torch it comes out pretty workable. No where near what they can do with a plasma/water/laser table. A grinder and paint makes me the welder I aint.

99% of the time I load it up in the band saw or chop saw and just cut it and weld it all up.

You can get it amazingly tight with just a band saw.
