Some may remember the picture a while of my front apron after it was removed. Well I was finally able to get the new one on. you may notice I used pop rivets instead of welding it. The inside seam will be sealed so no water may enter. I chose to use the rivets so that it will be easier to remove later down the road.

The front apron was riveted on instead of welded. I did so that if for some reason I need to remove it and install a new one or some other reason then all i do is drill out the rivets and the apron will come off.

Okay, that's understandable. I thought maybe you were going to customize it some way in the future. That's the only reason I was asking.
