On your chassis drawing… is the over head view assuming the angle in the chassis, or is it a flat representation? Also… can you tell me what the actual angle is on the nose of the chassis? Just as a verification… the braces are flat… right? Lastly, is 3.2mm (1/8”) good for the chassis pan, or would you like to see it made out of something thicker?
the plan view is showing the flat chassis plate, with no kick up. now, there could be a little bit of tweaking to do in regard to the bend point (which i think i showed on the drawing) due to that point being tricky to measure accurately, alloy stretching etc, but the bend point ive drawn will be very close indeed if not spot on.
the angle is 30 degrees for the kick up.
yes, the braces are flat.
3.2mm should be fine for all parts in 6061 as the jt chassis is 3.2mm.
as for other bracings, all rebates in the chassis etc - we could do with knowing whether people want:
1. the rebates in the chassis and braces as per the jt design or a plain flat chassis (cheaper but not as funky)
2. extra holes for roll cages or whatever
3. any ideas as to changing the braces, making a single piece brace, or whatever ur thinking of
just some basic drawings on a photo would do to give us an idea - easier and quicker to understand than words!
