Ammo Can Bike Rack

Here is a rack that i built to be able to carry some things and be water prof and could be locked if needed. The frame is built of flat stock 3/4 by 3/16 steel. I used heat to make the bends and welded in cross braces. I used two 30 cal. ammo cans mounted low with 3/4 inch spacers. The alum. cover is to cover the rack and act like a finder. I also built a rack useing a 50 cal. ammo can that i gave to my son to use on his Electra.

That rack of yours would look the bee's knees on the Felt MP.

is the 2x4 to raise the kickstand up for stability?

just wondering about the extra weight up there...
 
The 2x4 was to make the bike more upright to take the picture. You can not tell the boxs are on the bike when rideing it.
