Time to piece things together.

One of the best things about working monday to friday is that it takes your mind off the steps between what you are really working for. i love my job more than any job i have ever had. but i work so i can follow my dreams and enjoy life with those around me. 
This weekend the final piece arrived to get the board put together. i still have a long way to go but i can finally see if everything i have designed will fit together. 
​​Lucky number 7. Seven pieces is all it takes to have your very own jet luge. sure i could have used less. but i have always liked the number seven.

Below is the layout of everything how it needs to sit. nothing is screwed in or on. i just wanted to quickly see that everything was ok.

One of the first things i had to do was work out where and how i wanted to mount the tank to the chassis. i had a pretty good idea of what i wanted to do in my head before hand. I just needed to see that it would work in the real world. to do this i used some pieces i had laying around to mock up the position of where the tank will sit on the board.

With the tak sitting nicely i had to make sure anything i used to mount it would not impede on any of the electronics or battery. this is the slowest part. you lay it out. see a possible problem. lay it out again. see something else. stare at it for like an hour or two. go away come back and stare some more. once you drill that hole or make that cut. it's there for life. Like any good tattoo. i will always take as long as is needed.

Once i was sure of the layout. i could now start to hard mount everything needed to make the rolling chassis..

I am now the owner of possibly the longest and most stupid looking streetluge/longboard in the world. next comes all the fun of wiring this sucker up to make the silly become cool.
