It might not seem much

blog-0129292001374278899.jpgProbably because it isn't much! But it is a start on the Dick Kerr chassis. Personally I love this bit, a couple of bits of soldered together brass (to make two identical frames), and a new innovation. Yes, another good idea, two in as many days! Previously I have just gone straight for cutting the brass, tried making card formers but never quite right. This time I used a bit of foam board which is ridged but squishy enough to form to the body to get the right shape for the frames to fit the body. Dead easy to cut as well. I shall blue the rather too hefty brass and then scribe outline and axle positions then go to work with drill, saw and file. I may love this bit but the wife certainly doesn't as she finds the sound akin to someone pulling fingernails down a blackboard. Actually, going completely off the point, this is a sound / sensation that is now going to be lost to humanity as they only have high tech white boards (which are brilliant!), in schools now. Have found the wheels, axles, bearings, gearboxes (note plural!), and frame spacers but motors and fly wheels are eluding me at the moment. Hopefully tomorrow a few chassis surprises will be revealed!blogentry-16008-0-98460700-1374278884_thumb.jpg
