Scratch Build – In Progress S-K-Y-N-E-T : The Beginning [Update:2011-01-24]

That thing is 101% sexy, will follow.

 

I believe it is I just need the color code to it so I can modify it to my personal preference

Haha thx hope the finished product will look better, I can tell you one thing tho there will be no shortcuts in this build

Hej McTw1st! Really nice to see your log here! It's real fun doing a LC'd SFX build, good luck! To be constructive - I would ditch the aquatuning radgards, no sponsorship is worth that kind of thing imho. Unless you're actually making the PC for them. Something more elegant might even give them more exposure than that. Non-the-less, a beautiful and really awesome idea!

I'll keep myself updated on this one!

 

Hej Hannes.
I haven't got any demands from them regarding the build although its only a concept and may or may not be there in the final build, thx for the heads up. Might just add SKYNET on one side and mctw1st on the other with that said I still don't know what the final product will look like.

Sounds to me like a better idea! However you'll do you've proven to me that you're a

 

Thank you for them kind words

 

Love the sketchup, but the Aquatuning branded grills just jump out as being tacky to me.

 

yeah we'll see what il do with thos

 

Mate good luck working with titanium...... I take it you have worked with it before.
I'd have the alu in a heart beat its like working with putty

 

Titanium! Do you have access to a machine shop or already own quality tools and accessories? And to spend the extra money on it just to paint over? Even stepping up to an aircraft grade alum is going to test your your do-dads down there!

 

Will be waiting for the final product. Looking good.

 

I know its going to be hard work, but then again im not completely sure on what to use just yet frame parts are taking longer than expected to arrive due to x-mass

Thank you, yeah im waiting for it aswell xD

 

I have a Titanium Buck folding knife. In 20 years I have managed 1 ding in the titanium. Dropped it several hundred feet down into Grand Canyon.
How would you work it?
I have been looking at Titanium wedding rings. Only get one chance. Get correct size.

yep titanium is a pain then it work hardens haha

 

yeah but then again im just gonna have square pieces cut out and then bolted on with some nice bolts

 

guys what do you think of covering the tubes like this but painted black

 

I for one like clear tubes. But maybe this will look good on your build. I can't tell really.

 

yeah i like clear tubes as well, but i think it will suite the build much better

 

Just try it out then.

 

If you're going to paint them black, why not just use black tubes?
