			It's time for another update. Last week I've begun starting to bend the last tubes for the cage. http://www.keversite.nl/fotoalbum/fo...2005001341.jpg And that gives this final result. ![]() It need to be shortend on the right size and then also this one can be welded in. Also is the cross welded in. http://www.keversite.nl/fotoalbum/fo...2005001514.jpg And that gives this nice picture (if I may say). ![]() Here some detailpics of the welding http://www.keversite.nl/fotoalbum/fo...2005001624.jpg http://www.keversite.nl/fotoalbum/fo...2005001729.jpg Grt.

			There's only an verry little update of the cage. The "fixingtubes" are widered (uitgedraaid in het nederlands) for the right diameter and are drilled so that the several pieces of the cage can be bolted together at the end. The next update will be over a couple of weeks I'm afraid because I'm now verry busy with the chassis (new fuellines 2*12mm and new brakelines). When I've fixed that I will paint the chassis and the cage at the same time. Wiebrand

			If I'm not mistaken the correct therm for "widered" is machined off (als ik me me goed kan herinneren van de Engelse les vroeger tenminste)
