In my line of work I have access to enough material to make thousands of chassis. That's just the one piece I brought home for this project :mrgreen:

Now I'm finished fabricating parts. I might change out the arms later for less yellow ones but done for now.

Those should get you in the ballpark

Cuts easily with a jigsaw, dremel, etc but make sure to wear a mask. It's very bad to inhale the dust
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas
