Locost Build Diary

Some more progress was made. The build table construction is under way. Should prove to be pretty robust, and relatively inexpensive. The top is 3/4″ MDF, with a frame of 2×4s adding structure underneath. The legs will be some rough sawn 2×4s (although in this case, REAL 2″ x 4″ boards). 4″ casters all around with brakes will make it relatively movable (just the top alone has to be around 100lbs). Total cost should be around $50. Wiring is mostly pulled from the 240SX as well. Next time around the idea is to pull the rear end, brakes and any other bits and then get rid of the carcass.
