Making Sure

This past week was devoted to finishing up the passenger side fender and working on a full scale mock up of the front of the box. Wanted to make sure that the proportions were going to work out with the cab.

We made the frame out of 2x2 and plywood with a lot of screws. A fellow H.A.M.B. member Fabmancoe gave us some good starting measurements to start out with. The 20" radius worked out prefect for the sides. the top radius was 10", but decided it was not enough and didn't look right. We ended up using the same radius as the side.

This is with the 20" radius on top. Looks more correct. We used black roofing paper to wrap the frame work.

This step might have taken some extra time and money, but was wroth the effort. It helped us with some of the measurements that we will need to work out for the rest of the box.
