cledus Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 I notice that the new format mag has a new section on how to make bits for your CF. How about an article on how to make a turnover rig/jig for a CF? I would find it useful, and I'm sure other people would when you look at the cost of them. Just a thought. Cheers, Darren
Posse Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 Great idea but with the cost of metal i wouldn't of thought you could of built one for less than £150 ? But like you said would be a great idea
bigglesmk2 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Posted June 30, 2008 Was flicking through some old Classic Ford mags and found an article on how to build your own strut brace. A 2003 mag i think
Arfur Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 I'll look into it, but as Darren says, you'd struggle to buy in all the metal required for less than 150 sheets, and you can buy ready-built ones for only £10 more including delivery from Allerton Classic Cars (0151 4275588), and that includes delivery...
4parajon Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 As has been said the cost of steel has almost doubled over the last 6 months, I was lucky I made mine from offcuts of what I had lying around. Ive seen them on e-bay for about £120 plus carriage, I would reccomend buying them sharpish if you want one as when there stocks run out the price will only go one way I'm afraid. But if you are determined to make your own, the link below will give you a good idea of how to make it and what it will cost you. http://www.neilfletcherracing.co.uk/the_spit.htm
