Project Carnage

[wolfrocco]

hello everyone
We started this Savage XXL project a few weeks back just on and off before we went out bashing

Prop's go out to Clint , Ryan and to Jones because he does not know we are using his motor yet lol.


there is still some work to be done make linkages, roll cage , motor upgrade and a few small things that will come up. the Alum cost about 12.00 for a big sheet and then the 2 Savage XL center dog bones were 20.00 total.


we took it out yesterday and it handles rather well for the size the weight on it as it sits int he picture is 11.06 lbs .

kool project wolf, the tvps look good & thick

i especially like how you used your buddies mill & he don't know :crazy:

 

[Bankrupter]

Looks cool! I think Robin makes a tvp like that but he cheats ... lazer cut.. they do work very well that length

 

[wolfrocco]

I wish we had a Lazer cutter lol

all we had was a jigsaw and a metal blade and a bench made out of 2x4 to secure the TVP to
