Roll Cage: page 4

 Today has been a long time in the making. I have finally reached a point in the case build that I feel comfortable posting images of it. These early build images give me the chills because it really brings to life what has only existed in digital format for all this time. I want to express my gratitude for the patience of Darren Healy at ZBoard who watched as my initial start date blew by unoticed a few months ago and didn't even flinch. Thanks Darren!

 I hate to get all emotional over this, but this first image really drove home the fact that the case was actually going to be...It is the tubing after the initial cutting just layed on the ground in the general shape of the case. No grinding or fitment yet.

 Here is the first panel being tack welded together. In the beginning I was using right-angle magnets to hold the tubing.

 A close up of one of the welds, unfinished...

 Lining up the two sides to make sure they are the same...

 There are more early build images on the next page...
