HardWired and all derivatives thereof have now been shelved for the time being.
Realised I simply don't have the knowledge, money or tools to even attempt to compete with other Featherweight machines at the minute, so there's no point wasting money trying to make things work. Going to start putting money aside for more expensive pre-built or custom made parts - my intention being that all I have to do is bolt it all together and drive it at events.

Does seem a bit of a cop-out, but I have zero engineering experience, and only a cordless drill and kitchen side at home with which to build these things, so it's my only hope really...

In the mean-time however, I'm going to be building an antweight out of some old parts and transparent acrylic I found the other week, it'll stand up to nothing, but it'll definitely look cool!
