I spotted an RC Solutions rollcage on ebay a few weeks back, decided I had to have it since I've always wanted one and they are long discontinued- it's condition was.... 'rough', but I could make it work for me. I didn't like how high it sat so went about chopping bits off, drilled some new holes for mounting and stripped the anodizing with some caustic soda ( sodium hydroxide ). It came out quite well really after being cleaned up and straightened out- I didn't use the bottom plate or the two cross braces, I wanted the cage mainly for cosmetics rather than strength and it actually feels nice and stiff as it is.

Hopefully I will be able to make a new video fairly soon- it has in fact been 4 years since my last one...
