need to fabricate Bat Box

Post by dachoppa »

anyone on this board lucky enough to have the battery box frame, as well as the top cover, on their machine?

I am going to need to make up this assemby for mine. It looks simple enough: flat bent metal with some hinges welded in place.

I am in for a box if the late model (high SN) is the same as what you are fabricating.

There are 2 ways to post pictures.

The first is to have the pic hosted on another site and insert it between the <Img> link in the box above where you are typing. Click the img and put the URL of where the pic is hosted between the existing syntax.

or

In the box where you are typing your text you will see save draft, preview, submit, boxes below it. To the left you will see a tab that says upload attachment. If you click that tab you will get a box where you can search your hard drive for the picture by clicking "browse" and when you find it click the grey "add the file" box. It will then pull the pic file from your hard drive and add it to the end of your post.

very generous of you GN355!

hand sketches, MANY photos and as many dimensions as you can take would be a start.

thanks for your offer!

P.S. where are you?

these are great pictures showing what I need.

Now, however, I have tried opening them from the posting.. no luck...I tried downloading to ao loacl server, and I cant enlarge...am not sure if I can enlarge these enough to see detail. I think these are reduced to to be allowed to be posted?

So, if its not all too much trouble, could you send the raw .JPG files to my email when you get time?

That way I can download from there

thanks!
