Mack1 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 (edited) Have seen a few of these go secondhand on ebay a few times and thought to myself how simple a job it would be to make . So whilst at work today I got about looking at design, size and where to start. Found some 6mm ally and started to cut to size. Radiused the sides first. When I got back home measured where the bend on the front needs to be and roughly measured for the drilling. Today's efforts.

Tug Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 What grade ally is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack1 Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 I want to say 5056. Not the hardest but we dont stock 6061 above 3mm. But that is in another division so not 100% certain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
