Bigman Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 (edited) Dunno why u said i would turn up with much, :( but i have made a few things, well, sort of. Here is my Carbon booster i made for my DT project, 9mm thick, and works a treat: Not sure if this counts, but this is my middleburn bash that i turned down on the lathe, 20t size now, with material taken off the back to make clearence for a KMC kool chain. I also made the tool to fit it onto the lathe, but i have no good pics of that, and it is no where near as good as Edd Potts's one. I also made a frame :) um, didn't turn out as i wanted it to realy, lol, got a few measurements wrong, please don't laugh at it, it has fealing as well u know. I have also made some 50mm coust pads, um, abit good on a koxx rim they are :blink:" lucky Rob. Adam Edited April 15, 2005 by Bigman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
