Anybody have access to sheet metal/cutters etc?

I need some stuff made...Like my skis lol...If anybody knows somebody that'll do it, I can scan a copy of my drawing up and send it to them, but I'd need it to be welded together too....LMK.

[Ponch]

Oh yea, I didn't think about that lol....Ok then...I'll ask tommrow at school if I can stay late or something.

i could make my own, except it sucks, they have to be welded. unless u just wanta buy some u cheap skate cuz somehow u have to make it fit over the drive hex or whatever it is called, and what are you going to do to cut power to the front, just take out the pins, i tried that with my emaxx and they still have a little bit of power, we might have to take the center shafts

the last two statements seerved 2 purposes, one they made me laugh, then i quit laughing and thought damn i must be really old.

[Ponch]

Dude I just took out the center driveshaft so no power gets to them at all duh...

I've done it before just make sure the ski's pivot at the ski not the hex. Other wise they will flip. But yeah I have Mill, lathe, and I can weld.

Dubro makes some plastic ski's for airplanes.

I will probably make some in my metals class. The actual skis will still be plastic but I plan on milling the actual carrier out of some nice aluminum. I will see what other cool stuff I can make. I may mill a nice wheelie bar too. (With a piece of scrap titamium on the end so that it sparks wahoo.)
