While we were working on the motor mounts I helped Brad make the intrnal metal structure for his R2 frame. First we cut all the pieces to length and shape.

Then we took turns stick welding.

After cleaning up the slag, Brad filled in any gaps in the welds

We then installed the bracket for a test fit.

Now all we need is some muffler clamps to bolt it to the upper legs.

Once we got this far we helped Dash get a start on his brackets. As of right now I have no pictures of it. I need to get R4-ED's frame prepped to do the same thing.
