turbodreams Posted October 9, 2008 Author Posted October 9, 2008 been to b and q, got a titanium drill bit, seems to be working.however, what i dont understand, if you look at my picture of the frames, which is a picture of glanza-loves frames as he had these seats.the metal strips attach to the frames, but are they held, it looks like screws/bolts, but dont seem so "attached" if you get me.

SiCaln Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 glad u got that working man, sorry not sure on the other bit tho Quote
turbodreams Posted October 9, 2008 Author Posted October 9, 2008 the titanium drill bit lubed up with some royal purple works a treat, i made a hole through the iron in about 4 minutes, compared to before, took me an hour with no royal purple. stuff is brilliant. Quote
SiCaln Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 haha clever stuff, ill have to add that to my sale section lol Quote
turbodreams Posted October 10, 2008 Author Posted October 10, 2008 indeed it is good stuff.finished the rails and metal bars, now got to wait till next saturday before my local garage can weld them together and fit the seats.id rather they finished them, because if i dont do them right, its a difference of life and death!

Sparky Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 We welded angled iron to my frames and welded plates which were mounted to the seats, much easier Quote
turbodreams Posted October 10, 2008 Author Posted October 10, 2008 think al leave the rest in the hands of professionals lol Quote
andy.i Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 75buck for a grinder! got mine for 9.99 out of b n q!remember if the rivets are stainless, make sure the drill is mega sharp as its a cnut to drill and if you heat the stainless up to much and let it cool it will become even harder and near impossible to drill!

turbodreams Posted October 10, 2008 Author Posted October 10, 2008 i used the grinder for about 10 minutes, its was useless, kept running out of battery after 10 minutes, turns out it was faulty, just got a refund, dont even need it now.smashed the rails off, and my local garage will do the other seat.
