bendy Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I hate welding up holes in panels, it has often gone wrong for me with the distortion. Great work going on i definately would struggle with that level of fabrication to save a shell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welder Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Fantastic fabrication work there fella. I take it you'll be investing heavily in Mr Bilt Hambers products once it's all done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garymanc Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 What did you use the pizza for triangle template how long till it's back on the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keith1200 Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Phil? I think you've over-done the Pizza! Tesco Pizza's aren't too bad AND the empty boxes are good for making up templates (that's wot I use for template material on mi Coupe's chassis leg) However! I've put on aboot 3 stone over the last 2 years! Soooo in hindsight! Cereal boxes are probably better for the wasit line! Anyhow whats happened to the Kadett?

keith1200 Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Ah! So in your opinion? are Cereal boxes better than Pizza boxes for making templates? (pun) Looking forward to updates Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volksdevil Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Im sure you could build a whole new shell made purely from weld! I will catch up with this thread sometime, it's a fantastic credit to you mate. Neil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
