Re: Wood Chassis vs. Kit Frame

Yeah a laser chars the edges a tiny bit but being able to cut out enough pieces for 2 drivetrains in about 20 minutes is well worth it. I am so excited. Finally we get to play with wood.

O and for anyone that cares. Our new frame complete will weigh 15lbs, a comparable aluminum one would have been ~25 and still would not have been as stiff. Now we just have to figure out how we want to finish it...hmmmm...
