My Builed Thread

[ChrisJ]

The time has come!!!!! and the smile on my face is huge!!!

Received my stage 1 chassis kit from Andy yesterday so today i got busy starting to put it all together, thought i'd pop up a build thread to track my progress, throw some ideas about etc.


I'm building the chassis at my unit as there's more space, it's warm, lightings good and most importantly i've already got a solid work table to use.

The table i'm using is a roller blind table ( i manufacture/install window blinds) and the table was setup and bolted down perfectly level, so it's a good base.
I've attached a sheet of 15mm mdf and screwed it down tight so this will be the base.

After unwrapping Andy's superb chassis pack i started to lay it out and get an idea of where it all goes, pretty quickly layed it all out and began to mark up the base board.

Eventually had it all marked and most parts blocked in, left it this evening with just two bars needing placing in.
