My friend "Cruiser" came over and needed a spot weld on a rifle sight (which turned out great) so I figured since I had the welder out I might as well take care of them bent foot pegs on the Heathkit Boonie.
I found a place who sells thick 7/8" tube for about a buck a foot. I'm new to welding and only have a cheap mig but it did ok and I have a good bond and welded all the way around like the original.
For those missing a boonie foot rest, stock is 19" long and 1/4" above the bottom of the front of the frame.
