Ooh I remember having a build table like that once, I was working in the prototype shop of a major manufacturing company at the time and I built the first off cab frame and chassis for the JCB fast tractor on it, good times!

All the best for your build Dave, looks like you're in good hands, D.

Hi Mate, another guy down south!

Your build looks great, I was only in Taunton a few hours ago! Probably drove past the workshop without even knowing! Hope to see you at the Exeter Show this year.

Thanks for all the comments. I must give credit to forum member Gus for the welding. I traded rebuilding his engine, and helping with his electrics, for him to build my chassis for me.

The table in the picture is one of 12 that we have where we work. That is only a baby one. The table the chassis was made on is 10m long x 2.5m wide. Overkill I know, but it was the only one free!!

This is the second chassis Gus has built using only a centreline & dimensions, and they are spot on.

I will finish off the drawings for the rollcage and post them up.

Cheers

Dave
