Delrin would make a good substitute, less messy than wood (shavings/chips rather than dust), but I think the main thing I need for my mill before I make a billet motor mount would be digital read outs, and more practice. Currently I am working on modifying some parts for my MBX5T, so I am getting some more practice in before I work on my steel MGT motor mount. I'll probably start on it tonight though, so I'll post up some pics tomorrow.
just a little message for those who want a CD mount
My friend made some
if you want one send me a PM, and I give you his Email (he don't want hundred spam...)
It's not a business, so there's just a few kit made
and I don't take any money in it, just my friend for his work...
and Krawlin' I'm waiting to see what you gonna do with this milling... I'm sure it'll be great !!
Love what you've done with this build (both of you) this thread has given me so much inspiration to do a similar mount for my LST XXL. Just wondering if there were any updates as i am planning on buying a mill as well and if i see some pics then that would probably seal the deal for me.
Just registered after reading this thread. I think I might want to follow this conversion for one of my mgt's...
My kids are running electric and I think it might work for me also. I have tons of MGT parts, so maybe converting would be better then moving to a erevo or Savage flux. I've always liked the MGT platform..
I Could probablly fund the project if I sell a brand new in box MGT I have. It is the first one, with the .21.
