PROGRESS!

So it's been far to long with out a update for you all out there but Savage City Industries has had a few delays, hiccups and unplanned hurdles.

Unfortunatly I missed the race, but next year we'll be there - hopefully with 2 soapbox racers!
Until then here's some updates.... with photos as promised.



Cutting metal with... uh... METAL!! Brutal!
This is the pipe that becomes the radius rods.




Drilling metal with metal, so much metal, AWESOME!
This is 20mm box section that will become the drag-link for the steering.




Milling metal with metal.
Making the front ends for the radius rods, many hours works in these 2 jerks!



The skeleton of the beast, with a front axle, radius rods and some sweet tread-plate floor in the front!




Sitting in the garage on all 4 paws for the first time! Very exciting times now.



Check back, more updates next friday.... more building next week.
