Default Lower C channel

I dug out another piece of C channel I had fabricate years ao out of either 10 or 12 gauge and it was 1" by 2 inch by 1 inch, All "outside" measurements. It took a lot of cutting and grinding to get it to fit over the hinges and i forgot to take pictures but it was a lot of fitting chalking and grinding to get it to fit from side to side.
Welding wasn't great and welding got worse as the feed was stuttering badly and I assumed it was me, But I got to the upright 1"x3"x1" C channel for the uprights and I paused to find out what was wrong with me or the welder. Turns out the spool was just to tight on the post and I greased it and all seems to be well. You can see how the C channels hide the hinge.
Looking after one of the grandkids tomorrow so back at it in a couple of days!
