The Boss told me he wanted a gate for the business!!
So here it is!
Each panel is 13’ wide X 8’ at the tall end and weighs about 650# the posts are 6x6 .250” wall They weigh about 1000#
I used the CNC table for the company’s logo and name, 3/4” base plates and the pyramids on the posts (using bend slots) getting ready to mock it up and test fit it, then it’s off to powder coat
It’s been fun learning this machine

Really Nice. I just built a 22' Gate for my house. What are you going to do for hinges?

Simply Outstanding!!! I love those chrome covers on the base.
Thanks for sharing your finished project.
What do you call that paint texture and color? It looks great!
