It`s a scam!!......Hit the deck #3

Ok......another small update but it has taken lots of naughty words and time to do.......a ladder!!!!

I didn`t have any suitable sized material for the ladder so i had to make do with a mix of 0.8mm copper wire and 0.6mm treads.....and a couple of bolts!!, the bottom two rungs fold up during moving but drop down when needed. This was a ferkin` mare to build........trying to attach 0.6 to 0.8 with out getting stuck to the bench and keep reasonably straight was a challenge indeed. I ended up clamping a small steel rule and making a small former with a heavy square weight to stop things wandering about.

Oooh.........that was quick brother G, was you hiding outside the door

Thanks mucker .....i`m just pondering about adding one of those chunky spare wheels on the rear on the otherside of the ladder.......need to scratch a mount and convert one of the wheels.

That’s looking outstanding, Boots.

Thank you kindly my dear fellows

Looks so tidy, well done

Just keeps getting betterer and betterer dude.

Ok...been doing a bit here and there and my main task was attaching the rear fenders, as mentioned earlier i have no location points so some measuring was required to get them to sit correctly from the wheels and also fit between the lattice work of the rear deck support......once the etch was bent to the required shape i went about drawing a template onto the lower part of the deck using the chassis frame as a guide to which area i had to work in. Once i had my `safe area` it was a case of making sure they were both positioned level.......i then simply applied a small piece of 1mm square rod on the lower deck to act as a location point and guide....then i did the same on the opposite side of each fender to sandwich it inbetween.....nice and rock solid.......the rest is just a bit of free licence.

Looking good mate

Gem-tastic super detailing, you're so in the zone boots!
