then get a lower cart and a four stroke twin cylinder. youll roll that thing on a covered surface.

I know, I'll try to figure something out. But rolling is fun yes?

 

[Robin2]

not when you get flung out and break your leg. not to mention gravel rash. picking bits of the road out of your arms and palms is not something you will enjoy doing.

Put in a thing so that you have to hop in to get in so it can hold you in the car, like a door, but it doesn't have to open.

An extra brace? Yes, my dad took some pics into his work and all the guys there said to but in an extra brace, not only will it stiffen the chassis up a bit more, but it would provide some extra protection. Argh, I can't wait to get started. But we got a few extra projects to do first. Damn them!!!

UPDATE!

Well I was bored and started cutting up the steel:

Now I just need the cut off saw from dads work to cut the angles and then its welding time!!

 

[Vasco]

Yay. So it's about time you actually started!

 

[Cobraboy]

Well, two weeks ago we got started. We cut the angles, welded them, only to find that the dimensions had gone out because of the cut off saw not being so accurate and that we didn't use a jig to hold it all in place to weld it all together.

So tomorrow we're going to give it a serious go, doing it properly and correctly.

Expect plenty of photos, I'm hoping to get one of me welding .
