"Scaler" Started on my first scaler ever.

[Blackfoot]

I know its not perfect, but with the limited building tools and work space I have, I made due.

I bought 8 foot of 3/4 Aluminum angle, 4 foot fo 3/4 flat, 4 foot of 3/4 C channel and 4 foot of 1 &1/2 flat stock.

The chassis is 12 x 3.5 with a belly that drops 2.5
There will be more screws holding it together, but I was being constantly interupted by my daughter and son wanting to know what daddy was doing.

Now I just need to find me some axles and a tranny. Probably go with a Stampede/Rustler/Bandit tranny and TLT Axles if I can score some in mu budget.

Looking good...

I may have a set of TLT axles coming from a trade... Pede tranny should be easy to find...

Thanks. Im very limited on cash. My budget is very tight, so it takes me some time to get anything saved up. Once it warms up Ill be making more money as I also do odd jobs that are seasonal. So anything I find will have to be at the right time with the right amount in my hand, or a heck of a good price.
