The next installment of the Dune Buggy Electric Conversion project is in. Since we brought you the 1st installment about a month ago there has been lots of work put into it. There are lots of interesting techniques that can be used next time you are working with some high current applications. I like the way the wire lug ends were made rather than bought. The frame is sure to be nice and level since it was laser aligned.

“The tube locations were determined with a laser-level and transcribed to a sheet of plywood. Two more pieces of wood (of the same size) were clamped to the template board, and drilled together to accurately place the holes for the tubing. The plywood sheets were squared and held together with lengths of scrap trim secured diagonally.”
