How about in-process fabrication?

I made this tray on an Armstrong metal brake - you know, my welding table, a big piece of angle iron, two clamps, and two strong arms.

Figured I'd post some pictures of the hidden axle blocks I made.
Here's what the real thing looks like, usually CNC machined out of steel. ![]() Basically they are axle blocks that have a plate covering the axle, so they're called hidden axle blocks. My version: ![]() cut the 1.5" inner diameter piping in half ![]() space the two sections apart using 1.5" pieces ![]() Bevel all the edges and weld it up then grind them smooth ![]() now do the other side ![]() I had some spare aluminum from building my last intake manifold, so i used that for the covers ![]() to attach them I made some little tabs to go on the inside, welded a nut to the backside. and countersunk the holes in the cover for the screws ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Gawd almighty, there some mindblowing'ly
formidable stuff here ! Unfortunately my own welding capabilities are slightly less than those of a piss-drunk child, so I leave that to others. Generally I enjoy doing the things that most people dislike and find tedious. Like doing multi-carbs : ![]() and the VERY small details: ![]() Vargas girl printed , cut out and covered with several layers of clear-coat, used as Volt-meter needle. ![]() Micro-fabrication one might call it...ha ha. That all pales compared to what I see here in this thread. RESPECT ! Last edited by octane98; 06-15-2008 at 07:32 AM. |
