using 2mm as its easier to get for me,

Good start there pal :cool:

My chassis is 2mm too!

thanks, enjoiyed it so far apart from making the front frame :mad: lol

I cheated and got Talon to make one for me :p

Not untill after 2 failed attempts i must add :o

Front frame is a real pain in the but, just looking at the build table, do you think it quite up to the job, joking it looks great

Good start Jason....take as many pics as possible as it is a great way to remind yourself how you did it, also because some builds will take a couple of years and it is easy to forget.

It looks very nice, congratulations :)
I did my front frame twice also, before getting it OK...
Good luck for the rest of the build, you look to have good equipment/working place (lucky you!)

Was that the chassis that Tuffnells delivered?

I did do the bottom on some ply but was as stable as I'd like so put it on the table just added some 2x1 in places.

I was not Phil, you just supplied me a constructed front frame.


I wouldn't use a timber base again, mine sagged all over the place :mad:

Done abit more today, for some reason i cant put photos up on here it comes up as a broken link, any suggestions?

If you right click on the photo and find the image URL (it needs to end with .jpg) and then put that in to the insert image on the forum post.

Ok cool thanks

Is your chassis symetrical ? That's how you want it ?
U7 & U8 shouldn't be symetrical... as they look on your photo...
Or they look like that just at this photo.

*Everyone* makes this mistake. I know I did. And I've seen it on most of the build photos at this stage :-)

no that was an oversight l:eek: l lucky there only tacked on, might have to put more photos up for ya all, like a spot the odd one out
