In this review, the author talks and shows how to make a trunk on the car roof with your own hands.
A home-made design will not only be better in quality than the budget factory models, but also cheaper.
First of all, the author cuts two blanks from a profile pipe 110 cm long. After that, it will be necessary to cut four more blanks from the profile, but already 15 cm long.
At one end of each piece we cut a piece at an angle of 45 degrees. At the other end, we retreat from the edge of 3 cm, draw a line diagonally, and make a cut with a grinder on both sides.
Then we cut off the sides, and press the rest to the walls of the profile pipe. So you need to do on each workpiece.

The main stages of work
At the next stage, holes must be drilled in the lower part of the trunk legs: one with a diameter of 8 mm, the other with a diameter of 16 mm. We insert a bolt into the hole and scald.
Next, cut four rods with a diameter of 8 mm, make a groove on both sides (so that you can then put on a silicone hose), and weld the workpieces to the legs.
After that, the author welds the legs to the horizontal jumpers - two sections of the profile pipe 110 cm long.
Then it remains only to strip the metal and paint it with spray paint. Install the trunk on the roof of the car.
