I was able to mill my Body Bulkheads on the Shop Bot and they are looking great. Sanded them with a beltsander to better match the contour and added the Aluminum. A lot of 1/2 " nails

homemade bender held in vise

Here is a Bending Brake I made to bend the straps I needed for my front susspension. Made from some chuncks of scrap bar and threaded rod. i ended up tightening up the bends in the vise, but for the most part really happy with the results.

Frame Bracket

Frame Bracket Build

Very happy with my frame brackets. Since my last journal entry I discovered and Joined the Techshop here in the Detroit area and now have access to many tools I do not have in my own shop including a Water Jet cutter. This has to be one of the coolest machines to use. Awesome!!!
