Random fabrication thread to give people ideas on builds. Core supports, fender mounts, general jackassery. A good luck thread I’ll go first…

Ballpoint comparison is a joke to d44 yet those are very very had to break I can provide pics
 
That beam pictured does not exsist. It’s a d44 pivot full length 44 with d50 beam end. Gonna make fabricated knuckles for d50 if you all want them for big big brakes and un breakable ball joints for a 1/2 ton truck. Let me say this ball joint comparison is 50 cent piece to silver dollar. You can’t break what I warheads made you surely can’t brake these
 
For those that don’t have a plasma table highly advise the Langmuir system 2x2 to get you competitive with the others in the game.
 
Before and after mist collector brackets I made for mason motorsports.

Nice, just watched the walkaround of their new shop from fishgistics. Looks like a smoothly running machine.

Yes they are, James is very happy with the machines. He would text me if there was an issue. Matsuura makes great machines. Btw they are switching from baby blue to black soon thank God.
 
James is doing helical interpolation boring. I diddnt even know that was a thing and I’ve been in the machining game 27 years. Maybe it’s him utilizing technology, but most customers just use a boring barons boring head. He is using a lathe boring bar in a mill spindle to circular interpolate a part while clocking a boring bar and plunging in a helix all at same time. I tried to post a vid but file is too large. Table moves x/y while head clocks to keep insert at material face and z plunges in a spiral. It’s a 4 axis move that like a syncronis dance that about the best I can describe it to you. I did not know this was a feature of the Fanuc controller. 🤯
 
Mason has the best of the best in the Offroad game it seems.
