  4. how about just using the top you have made as a dummy and just put a a plastic 5ltr can under it held onto the frame with cables ties. it will look great.

  5. That would actually work :thinkingface: why odes XH talk about underpants so much? :worried:
     
  6. i think its cos you bring the best out in people exe..
    in all seriousness, you probably have access to facilities to mold plastic. worth a thought? 20lts plastic petrol cans are available too.

  9. Decided on paper the finm, I need to check my throttle cable clearance before attacking the aluminium :eyes:

    After 3 iterations with paper and adjusting the depth by 1cm to clear the throttle cable route I have a pattern. (I rechecked the scale calculation and I was 1cm too deep anyway so all good)
    Now marked out on the Aluminium sheet ready to cut, but I have just ordered a Chicken Phal so that's probably it for toady :blush:

  10. Front Lower section completed, in the end I had to do the angled side walls as separate pieces, I've left them a tight fit so they can be tacked and tapped in to place as we go.
    So I suppose I should go back to the tricky rear bit soon after a bit more pondering... :thinkingface:
