You made short work of that job Twin

The chassis will really start to come to life once you start tacking all of that together

I cut all of my tubes one at a time as I needed them & that was after I square cut the full lengths into slighly oversize pieces ( Just to get it off the floor ) .... Probably the most un-methodical approach in Roadster build history, seemed to take for ever !!??

I cut it all slightly over & square for now, as I have to move it all from home (Chester) to work (Portsmouth).

This week I need to sort my build table and start a blog.
