Bench to bucket conversion, need help please

"Agree to disagree", indeed, PD. Over the years, I've found the "quick & dirty" way usually works - 'til it doesn't! Carefully thought out, planned and executed meets MY wants these days.
"More than one way to skin a cat" is true, but the cat ain't gonna like any of 'em!

Look they sky ain't falling here, In that situation what if the welded area tears out because you welded 1/8 plate to 20ga?, What if your bolts sheer off? What if your tires blow out, and your car flips over. There is more than one way to skin a cat. Agree to disagree.
