guitarsam326 Posted January 8, 2015 Author Posted January 8, 2015 Scratch built, I can't remember what size stock I used, seems like it was.100x.040? Then I drilled holes to run brass wire through for the pins.
72 Charger Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 That's what I thought . That's how I would of done it (very fiddly but worth it in the end)I remember doing the doors on my DM800 mixer . I spent hours & hours test fitting again & again but they both still don't shut correctly
Steve Prideaux Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Great build! It looks like it has been working hard. Geat job.
Mopar - D Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Great build. Take it out side and put it in some dirt with a open foundation with rebar in it and you would not be able to tell it s not real.
