    I'm so glad to see you using fiberglass panels and fenders, it adds the custom look, and love the frame design, looks like a winner...

    if you want stiff fiberglass use cross directional weave cloth and epoxy resin will do the most.

    what you were describing is called Frame deflection , very common with rigid frames....but you know what you're doing....im impressed.

  • @halfshark101
    @halfshark101 5 лет назад +4

    Dude this project is looking great! The frame correction you made under the seat pan is perfect! Try using a woven fiberglass matte vs. A chopped strand matte for the heavier pan areas. It just produces a heavier/stronger product in less time and a spray can of mold release agent is fairly cheap too! Keep up the great videos man!

    Comin along great man! Lmk what year KX motor ya have and I'll send ya any parts I have (I ride YZ's now). But I got pipes, silencers, carb parts, V-Force reeds, tons of stuff. It's just taking up space so if ya want it u can have it. Glad to see a young kid not sitting on PS4 or Xbox all day and having actual skill so more than happy to help.

    • @joewynn2445
      @joewynn2445 5 лет назад +1

      That's awesome man! I completely agree with you, the kid has great talent and it's always nice to see kids now days doing anything other than sitting in front of a t.v. or computer. Keep up the great work young man!

    Cooking spray, "PAM" makes a great releasing agent for fiberglass work, and is cheaper then that aluminum tape too.

  • @josephshubin8465
    @josephshubin8465 5 лет назад

    If you want good strength/weight ratio, use a core material in the fiberglass/carbon, depending on what you use. Using foam core, nomex honeycomb, or other core materials that are light makes the sandwich much stronger.

    Mayytteee! Go hard or go home! This is a proper shifter kart! 10x what other channels have done. Love the build. I am worried about your shift paddles though. Everything else in the kart is 110% but the paddles look a little back yard. Great build.

  • @akukorhonen5182
    @akukorhonen5182 5 лет назад

    You still got to figure the steering out. Get the principles right and include then a ton of adjustment possibilities. This is such a nice little project so get it right on the money the first time.
    After all it only needs a few minutes of thinking, on a years work.
    Do it as you do, as long as inner front turns slightly more all the way.

    • @akukorhonen5182
      @akukorhonen5182 5 лет назад +1

      Don't get me wrong in any ways. Your project is fabulous. Maybe... try to get your hands on some rc-buggy with all possible steering adjustments, forget the suspension and work your way understanding the geometry just in the steering alone.

    • @VasilyBuilds
