Default Update ~ 4.20.08

Here are the tools I use to sand, file and shape the smaller areas. The metal files are generally used for clean-up of areas where cuts started, finished, or need to be corrected.






These are the infernal front radiator panel mounts/windows:







I eased the edge to give it a softer profile. This picture shows the front-side (top piece) of one panel, and the backside of the other.



I’m still undecided about radiator shrouds; it really comes down to whether I have the available depth… I hope so.

At any rate the radiator or the shroud will mount to the flush side, and the eased edge will be on the exterior.

Again, there is some sanding and clean-up before polishing can commence.



Here are the side window panels:



These are ¼” thick Bronze Acrylic. I went with a thicker-than-normal gauge as there is a notable amount of material missing from the side panels themselves, and I wanted to replace some of the lost rigidity.






I need to stew upon some other aspects, so to fill the time here are some other items to be used:

Carbon-nano tubes:





Lol… clearly they are not carbon, and they certainly are not “nano”. I just like to say “carbon nano tube”.

<off topic> I LOVE DUCATI’s; the way they move, sound, and look. One of the aspects that I appreciate is the tubular space-frame that is used in such legends as the 916 and the 748SP. Seeing these tubes reminded me of that aspect, and I was compelled to follow suit in some way or another.

They are nylon (I think), and are very light and rigid. This type of tubing is used for high-performance kite spars. I imagine that they would leave a rather angry welt should one be used as a whipping stick.



This is a remnant from the top bezel piece:



The shape is too interesting to let it go to waste. I intend to use this piece in conjunction with the “carbon nano tubes” to support the mother board tray.

Well…. I am off the Coast for some exercise and Pacific-air…





Have a nice day.

I think your tubes are graphite if you say they are used in kites. They will have great cross sectional strength but can be split down the center quite easily like bamboo. This would be my guess.
