I've made it out of titanium. Believe it or not titanium is lovely to machine :)

I then used give it a mottles finish

and then fitted all the bits and placed it on the dash


Pretty happy with the way it turned out :)

what tool do you use to get that effect ? was it done on a milling M/C ? Cheers Jack
Yer it was done on a milling machine mate but, you can do it by hand if you dont have acces to a machine, it just wont look as neat lol Then again for that sort of finish it doesnt really need to be neat. You can use a pillar drill if possible and also use a drill but that would be a last resort :). I used a buffing pad with some scotch bright on it with the chuck spindle at 1000 rpm. If ur still unsure of the tool give me a shout and i'll try and get a pic for you k mate.

In fact thinking about it that was a silly thing to say because you`d end up with lines compared to circles
haha yup dude you cant use the feed like you said as you'd have a coninuous line. But in saying that you might have a new pattern lol so give it a go

I have fully rebuilt my weber 45 and have been able to fit it :)


I have also made up a new engine mount as the origional did not fit once i had solid mounted the engine so this one is adjustable.


So now that my door is done i should be able to seal up the cockpit now and fit the seats and harnesses :) and hopfully rolling road next week :)

The mini has been to the rolling road WHOOP!! didnt get any figures thought as its a brand new engine so just had it set up so it'll pass emissions in the mot. So this is how it looked when i took it down. Its not complete as its still missing front end but its getting close now :)
