The beemer is finally gone and all thats left is this pile of bits in the garage.

I went down to Cwmbran on Sunday and picked up a couple of large pallets from a feller called Colin who I got in contact with through http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/. He gave me these big pallets to make my build table out of. Basically I need a large flat work surface to make the chassis on so these pallets will make an excellent base.

Also, today I purchased the power mitre saw I need to cut all the steel tube up to make the chassis. It's an Evolution Rage3 saw and it can cut steel, aluminium and wood, so will be very useful in the carpentry I have to do to make the build table, making the chassis and probably for years to come as well.

I chose this over a metal cutting band saw as that would have limited it's use to just the chassis, but this power tool is just so much more versatile it just made more sense, oh, and it was £30 cheaper! Hopefully now progress will speed up somewhat, although I will have to wait till next month to order the steel as I can't afford it at the moment.
