A new center foot

Today i finally got my new Argon gas bottle. I started immediately with the work on the sheets.

Here the first parts welded together:

Unfortunately i had a little problem with the welding machine after some minutes. But i could solve the problem with the help of my neighbour.

So i could continue on spot welding the sheets to a real center foot.

Please keep in mind that they are only spot welded here and there.

Tomorrow i will continue on it hoping the welding machine won't make any more problems!

New sheets

I just picked up the Ali sheets for the feet.

Unfortunately the Metal Shop forgot to press the threaded studs into the side greeblies, so i will have to go there again next week, when they have done this.

On monday morning i will go to the gas bottle shop to get a new Argon gas bottle in exchange for my empty one.

The New Order

In this case it has nothing to do with one of the newer Star Wars films.

It is simply a new order of parts for a spanisch builder that i will build.

Unfortunately i don't have enough sheets for a complete set of outer feet and a center foot.

So i contacted my favorite lasercutter shop to let them make a new set of sheets for me.

More to that in the next thread.
