Should be getting my inspection when the virus quarantine is over.=EF=BD =EF=BDI'm holding onto my tools since I may be a 3 time offender. Do not buy cheap tools made for cutting as they dull quickly. Buy a couple packs each of #30 and #40 drills.=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD Plus tap and body drills for #6,8,10 ...... get a couple sets. plus the taps.=EF=BD A couple sizes of deburring bits that fit a battery screwdriver is a must have.=EF=BD Stock up on mutiple TPI blades for the bandsaw.=EF=BD I have an 'automatic bandsaw', the type that has a vice to hold material as the arm cuts it off.=EF=BD Saves a lot if hacksaw work on parts that won't go through the bandsaw.=EF=BD The fiberglass parts are crap (IMHO) and I used an angle grinder on mine.=EF=BD You might consider putting blue foam in the doors to stiffen them but you'll need stronger struts for the extra weight.=EF=BD I didn't do it because I didn't think of it in time, but you might consider mounting the desser monster tires before making up the wheel pants. These recommendations should deplete your bank account for starters!!!
