Started on the lower deck



screwed them together and milled the flats at the same time





The idea is the battery will load from the bottom



my little mill



all spot on



Clamped it to a piece that will become the top deck, holding it like this I can mark with a drill through the existing holes to line it up.



Then I couldnt be sure about the top deck shape, so I had a cup of tea, and gave up



Ok after some thinking I have the top deck sort of where it needs to be, the cantelevers are going to be at an angle.



Need another one of these for the other end.



Cut the inside of the link out and flattened the top to give the rod end more room to move



now just got to make 3 more just like it



setting up on my little lathe



all the bodies turned up nice



put the flat on the top and made the hole for the rod ends.
