Default Re: Let The Build Begin!

New Years Update!

Since I don't have any access to a lathe or our mill during the christmas break I decided to get some parts together and start doing some styrene work. Wow i dont give enough credit to the guys who work with styrene to make beautiful bodies. My design was simple and straight forward yet i still had a heck of a time putting all the pieces together.. I also got the chuck of aluminium for the boom, it measures a whopping 30mm x 60mm x 250mm. I just hope it wont be to heavy. And i also got the wheel blanks cut out. Now i just need to face and center drill them, then they are off the the CNC and drill press. Any way, on to the pics:





















And since my old Digital caliper died i picked up a new one at KMS



Thanks for looking,
Chris

Hey Chris, I didn't realize you were close by until you made the KMS comment. I'm guessing that you will have this done by the end of the school year so will you be able to join us at the truck show in Duncan this summer?

Keep up the good work!
