Top View


Top view of the channel template fitted its held in with tape just to see if it fits right.

Tomorrow I will cut the template out of steel and see how that fits, more pics to come soon.

Test Fit


Cut the cardboard template out and what a fit, now I just need to copy this onto a piece off steel plate.

Outer Foot


Outer foot notice the middle channel missing

Feet Channel Template


Heath kindley sent me the drawings for the foot channels and motor brackets, I checked his drawing against my feet and made some minor adjustments.

I then copied these onto a piece of cardboard (this mornings breakfast packet)

Outer Feet


Today I made a start on my two outer feet, the feet I got from the run that Kelly and Heith did.
They need finishing by making and fitting the middle channel.
