Doing a small job for a friend of mines shop. This is the idea. Off to waterjet cutting tomorrow!! Staying up to finish up my ideas. Holds a bank of 6 batteries, 6 volt guys, totaling 426lbs. It will be completely constructed from stainless to help with the corrosion issues we have up here in NY.
Any opinions on improvements will be appreciated, assholes that thinks I cant design will not.
It’s amazing what you can learn on Youtube! LOL, I hope no one honestly takes that seriously. Good to see your angry ass and I’m sure you loved hating with Krant.
Why do they continue to make brake/fuel lines out of regular metal? And some Freightliners actually have wood across the bottom to hold the batteries up.
The rods across the front are referred to as “slide bolts” they secure the slide tray while in the retracted position. The handles are designed so the access door of the truck can not be closed without the batteries being in the locked position.
And to answer your question about the OEM material failing due to corrosion. They use steel on them because of cost. My cost on an 1/8" sheet of steel is $175, the cost if this material per sheet is a little less than $500. Even though what they make doesn’t last long, they can sell replacement units at $1000 per unit.
If you could please a customer by selling them something that works, and make them come back again a couple years later to buy another one from you, would you want to do that? Of course! More money in your pocket because your the ONLY one who makes them. I can re-manufacture pretty much anything, and beat the pricing on available solutions. This being just one example.
