Welcome back BT! and congrats on the 20th!! (I doubt my wife will let me live that long)
The Jig has been a challenge, Its three levels and had to be changeable in the back for different engine choices.
Normally I build a one off from a center line and start with the main tubes that everything attaches to, PITA! you have to climb over and around to build the rest
This way the table is the first section (the floor and lower susp mounts) and work my way up bolting on sections as I need them! should work sooooo much better
Its not just a jig to hold the car, It locates all the tubes so I don't need to spend hours and hours making sure the left matches the right (even the gas pedal mount is cut and clamp!)
I am also trying to get the Busa done for Steve, when I took on his project it was the only thing on my plate, and he has been great in not minding that I stop and build the Mako but now Its time to get it done! not to mention I need to free up the space and time to finish the jigs and molds
My wife use to paint all kinds of crazy designs on those cars (You already know this I'm sure because you raced) but they paint backwards and on the inside of the body!
and at 50mph and 50ft away with 10 others racing we needed them as bright and contrasting as she could make them, so they're pretty wild to say the least!
Gotta go back to work now!
