Project "Blacksmith

[Maxamuslead]

So realistically if i get off my arse Blacksmith (seriously considering of nameing it bodgesmith) should be ready tomorrow.

Got a 3d printed jig allowing for me to cut the alu closer to my required spec so that allowed me to mount the front armour plate much quicker and easier.

Only items left are createing and mounting the side, top and angled front HDPE which should be easy enough.

Just got three question.

Weapon retaining bar, is a screwdriver good enough? To be honest I am planning to get a m5x150 bolt and weld a handle on it but having a idea of a backup is nice.

What type of foam packing do people use round their batteries to help them not move?

haven't driven in anger just yet, but if the Center of mass is too far back, would adding a wheel bar type thing to force the nose down be a useful thing ??
