Re: "West Coast" drive?

All the files for the Universal Chassis are open source and downloadable from my website. www.team221.com

We took the major concepts from 254/968 and team 60 and made them production friendly. All components are made from stock sizes, they have no complex machining and every part is bolt together.

I made the first production batches in my home shop with a standard Bridgeport. A band saw, belt sander, scroll saw and drill press would suffice.
