Very clean. Can I ask how you managed to keep the grease off the arms when you were fitting the crush tubes. I'm covered in the stuff  Lots and lots of kitchen roll  Wife has mentioned the amount I am using as well  |

It's a fabulous job you doing here!
It is very clean, with very good ideas, and detailed construction.
And beautiful picture to see it in detail.
It gives me many ideas for my future rocket.
Very good continuation.

Whilst waiting for some main parts to continue the build I thought it would be a good time to get this job out of the way:   Decided to model-up and extend the steering column cover. From this will make a high-temp tool and pre-preg a carbon fibre part. |

Started the top part of the cover today:  Bottom half of this part still to do then lots of sanding to finish this as the pattern for the carbon fibre tool |

is that a pedal from Joker to match the Wilwood pedal box? Yes, had it powder coated black and purchased some stick grip tape for the pedal face. Jokers pedal is good quality item and it is now improved with a roller bearing. |
