Hi, having talked about doing something like this for years me and my best mate have finally started our first metalworking project a ron champion - never gonna build it for a £100 buggy!!! I've done loads of woodworking stuff in the past but never worked with metal so thought that this would be a great way to start. I got hold of some 38mm tube and being the impatient git that I am have already started chopping it up even tho I still haven't got a welder or an engine or anything. Figured I might as well make a start on the chassis whilst i'm looking for a donor bike. Anyway heres what it looks like so far...
Not much yet I know but its a start....
Anyway, If anyones got any advice, inspirational pictures, a welder to sell (pref a clarke or something), a bike/engine to sell, or just wants to warn me that what im doing is massively unsafe and that im heading for certain death then please let me know
Also, is there any reason I shouldn' t be cutting tube with an angle grinder?? It seems to be working fine but thought I should check.
Cheers B
