The Similarly Stimulated Saturn

Finish making all the cables. Used the big 3 foot crimper and shrink wrap the ends.

The following three images are part of the process of making a battery box.

This weekend I install the motor and begin making the 2 mounts.

The motor, controller and other major parts are arriving every day now. The batteries came in on the 23rd.

I removed the instrument panel with gauges.

1. Finish welding up the 2 rear boxes
2. Cut and install the plywood
3. Cut vent holes in and out on both boxes with inlets on both that may be able to be closed some in the winter.

I finally decided on location of the rear battery box and divided it up into 2 boxes.

Building the battery boxes entails several goals.

So I have made most of the decisions on which direction to go with the motor brand and size, batteries etc.
