It looks like it could be BR3,5,11, which would mean BR11 is too long:confused:

For TIG welding you want to use pure Argon

Well spotted John ,

Arfon...... I,ve just had a closer look at your build photos, in particular the 2nd photo on page 2......

With the position that your earth clamp is attached to your chassis & also looking at the junction of BR1/BR3 with BR10 it appears that you have both BR10 & BR11 positioned incorrectly, these 2 parts don,t have an open end tube on the outside of the chassis.
I can,t see the ends of BR12 but would suggest to check that one too.

Thanks for pointing it out, but i did post about making an alteration to these as I thought it would make a stronger weld a little while back. Instead of the outer rails just butting up end to end I think I can get a stronger weld with everything butting up at 90 deg to each other, all I have done is increase the length of the crossmembers by 50mm and decreased the outer rails to compensate. All of my diagonal dimensions are exactly the same as the book so I can't foresee any problems, boy you guys don't miss much

Arfon

Hi Arfon,

That's OK, I was more worried that you'd cut the tubes and arranged them out wrong, resulting in a chassis that's 50mm narrower and 50mm longer.

Everyone has their own take on things, and no two roadsters are going to be the same :D That's the beauty of the Roadster.

Kind regards

John

Thanks for the concern it's good to know people are always willing to help in anyway shape or form. I also think its great that the design is so flexable that people can put their own slant on things and I am hoping to get back into the garage sometime today and start the uprights

Arfon

Nice work Arfon,

As John said, :)

cheers

By the way Andy like the new toolbox but I think it would look a lot better in a garage I know of in North Wales, so if it is cluttering your place and getting in your way you know where to send it

Arfon

:eek: Noooooooooooooooo :D its taken me ages to get one ....I,m keeping it, LOL.

Cheers tho..... I like a bargain, & now no excuse for losing my sockets :o :D

cheers
andy

Well if you sent it here complete with sockets I would protect it all from being used and abused ha ha
