looks good Slebenelch. im going to have to try sanding one of mine down. just for the look. dont think i would have thought to use the sander

@Siebenelch: How did you do the grinding? axial with angled chassis or 90 degrees to the belt? I want to cut down my chassis, too! And by the way, do you sell one of the rear truck shock towers? Or where did you get them?

Uummmmm... you aren't planning on grinding down that expensive acid-dipped World's chassis, are you?

No, I want to cut down the tub of my Team car!

I once asked a guy that worked at a machine shop if he does any "govt work" and he looked at me like I was a Russian spy!
I couldn't believe he didn't know what that meant!

i love running the mill. I have become the main prototype builder where i work (not to bad for a kid just a few years out of high school) but my real love is cnc machining/milling. I am truly lucky to have nearly unlimited access to both a cnc mill and over head cnc router. I have been working on a chassis i drew up in solidworks that i have intentions of cutting out on a cnc. we'll have to see how that goes

i love looking at these cut and milled chassis'. sweet stuff. if this was a profession...and the pay was good i would be doing it for a living.
