Machining the Chassis

We soon got some machine time over at Rocky Mountain Composites and machined the chassis.


Here is the Chassis before we started cutting.



After about the first 5 minutes of cutting time starts to slow down... Soon watching the machine run is like watching grass grow.

Tyler from Rocky Mountain Composites and Dr. Drake, our advisor watch as the grass grows.


Here is the chassis about half way finished.

After the 12 hours of machining the chassis is back home safe and sound. The black is guide coat to help us sand evenly.

That is one big machine. I wish I could have been there to see it in action.
