You should build yourself a jig with the key points (suspenstion linakge/skid plate) already in their desired location then fill in the blanks with your tube work. you could mock up a stock chassis and build around that. OR just buy yourself a prefabbed tube cahssis and be done with it. |

Look in the vendors forums. There are vendors that do great work.

run a search theres abunch of stuff on people making there own tubers, check out the brazing threads people have started to get an idea on what is needed to be done, its not that easy and be prepaired for your first couple of chassis to come out crappy

So decide If you want to invest in a decent torch setup and rely on your skills/patience as you make your own. Or just pay someone to do it for you. | |

Good lord yes!!! Both do amazing work. DMG or death metal garage has got some ridiculous chassis's out there! I'd be honored to own one from either company! | |
