Hi all,

Just letting you know I have had my roll bar done, very pleased with it. Looking forward to the end of October and my weeks holiday to start fabricating my chassis. Roll bar is only part I couldn't do.

Looks like copper water pipe in that pic, hopefully a tad stronger

Would be interested to see that without the polythene on it... probably just an optical illusion (or my ageing eyes!), but the bends seem to be stepped and kinked in that photo.

Thanks Mike,

No, 50mm mild steel. Wall thickness 3.69mm so a bit beefier than I wanted but it isn't too heavy and certainly will be strong! I had it CNC bent so is spot on to my CAD drawings. Pleased with it.

Chaps,





How's that for you? It's got nice smooth 2D radius's. I'm pleased with it, bit different to anything I've seen around too.
