You're missing a pedal.

This is the greatest build of all time.

One of the most mind blowing cars I have ever seen.

All the work is immaculent and the attention to detail is unmatched.

I had some rubbish laying around to make something out of. The carbon dustcovers who are behind the wheels, were never completely finished in my opinion. I mean, it was just “plain” and nothing special. Now I was able to put some more time and effort into it, and started milling some aluminum from 3mm thick. First I made a round disc of MDF, pasted the aluminum on it, and milled out the 4 plates.

Offcourse this was childsplay, but then we stepped up a level. The meaning is to make a little frame around the carbon, on the outerside from the disc.

This may not be too wide, so it wouldn’t look to plumb.

Once this was all drawn out on the aluminum, we could get started.

The outer border is 7mm thick. The dangereous part is, that it could bend from the heat, or that the mill would cut in. But I thought about this long, and used a lot of WD40, and also I milled away a half mm per time.

Here they are, and it all worked out very well, although some polishing will be necessary.

This one is already abraded and polished.

This time I didn’t do the polishing by machine, just because I didn’t think it would come to a good end. Much do dangereous so hold this to a brush.

So I did it by hand, but offcourse, you don’t get the same result as by machine polishing.

But they shine a bit

I managed to find a way to polish those tiny alu rings with the machine.

This is the little plank of MDF I used to mill them.

On the outside I screwed a little slat that sticks out a few mm's

Made some more little plates.

Here you can see how tight it is, and it can't slide or shift somewhere.

The 5 plates are holding the piece down.

Offcourse I taped some "mush?" on the plates, so I didn't scratch the aluminum.

Instead of keeping it against the polishingmachine, I chose to do it with the drillingmachine, and this worked a little bit better as usual.

Once this was done, I had to screw the piece loose, and slide the piece a bit.

So I could reach the 5 places where the plates were, too.

This was the result, and you can never accomplish this by doing it by hand.

Here a familiy picture.

The aluminium bar that lays on the sanding block, I used to abrade the roundings on the inside. Just turned some sanding paper around it.

I get a lot of questions about how many time I put in to these things. Well, this is the first time I kept track of time.

I worked on these rings 26 hours.

and then I mean:

Drawing out

Mill the MDF

Saw out the aluminum, milling, and ...a lot of milling

a little bit of "filing"

abrading and a lot of abrading.

cleaning and polishing

quickly making a set of 4 rings, LOL
