I think that over hang is a bad idea. Imagine falling and slamming your face in there.
Having the opening in the middle also makes it seem like crossbars on each side would have more leverage to bend or break.
They would probably be quite weak. You could do them so that the cross bar goes down parallel with the gussets. Like Nawt bars but so that the crossbar and gussets are parralel. That would be cool.
DX sadface.
i do like this look, and i do think that that would kill to land on.
hmmm... i dont want to complete the top cuz theyll look like slayers. theyll be slayers. um. what if i had 2 more bars the attached from the hanging edge the the other.. ill just show you guys in an edit
Start with a basic, strong design, and then try to put your own spin on it.
Not trying to discourage you at all, I used to make bars so Im just trying to help. Keep it up.
