Chequer Plate

<< < (2/2)

Hmmmm ALUMINIUM  with a carburundum wheel  :roll:  :roll:
Not really safe or suitable  :roll:  :roll:

I could be clever and say Plasma cutter, BUT I would go for the jigsaw as it is designed to cut curves, you can always clean it up with a sanding pad on a grinder.

If you cut it from the back it is smooth and will be easier to guide the jigsaw  :wink:

You can get a aluminum cutting carborundum wheel now - same thickness as the stainless steel wheel obviously designed not to clog :wink:

Take it to a local engineering/metalwork company slip them a few quid they will do it on a gillatine or a plasma cutter. I did this and was well glad I did, fantastic accuracy clean cuts, it cost me £40 and worth every penny. and I bet wherever you go there will be one employee that is into landy's/ off roading and will be more than happy to help!

BigSi:
I’m assuming that chequer plate was designed for Land Rover’s! I’ve also heard that it also has other applications too!!!!!  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

extreme90:
yes, but its most common application, is to cover up the rust and battles scars on landys

and then its second best is to cover up car park battle scars on jeeps and other crud, as thats the closed they will ever get to offroad  :P  :P  :P

running.....running......gone
