Check out the chassis I designed.

Solid-looking hunk of metal. I can see that many hours of thought went into planning that. Why don't you get it polished and anodised? (Look better than powder coating IMHO.)

Those welded/rounded corners are fantastic!

Looks like a great chassis!

Yes Many hours of planning indeed! Because I want a matte black look with a bit of grain

WOW !!!

That is a really FANTASTIC chassis

did you used a sigle aluminium foil and you did bend

or are single piece that were soldered together ?

Kagliostro

That is one single piece of aluminum bent and welded together!

Over the past few days I primed and sprayed the outside of the chassis matte black.

Today, I finished a lot of the mechanical assembly

That's really beautiful - great design, and great work! I'm sure it will be a sweet build

How much to make me one of those?

Well, I have to pay the company my acquaintance works for and I payed 135 euros including two aluminum face plates (which are now at the printer to get screen printed). 135 euros is good if you're in Europe. It's cheaper than importing most ready made chassis.

That 135 euros included material, cutting, bending and welding. I did the painting myself afterwards.

Just let me know if I can help you get one. You can use my design if you want

What's that in us dollars. I assume shipping would be 30 or so.

The chassis and faceplates would be around $195

Beautiful chassis. Joost how did you calculate the material loss on the bends so it ends up the correct dimensions.

Joost, super chassis. How did you calculate the material loss on the bends so it ends up the correct dimensions.
