The first piece of our sled is finally completed! We have finished a section of the nosepiece of our sled. To complete this we filled PVC pipe with sand, built a jig at the correct angle and shape for our nosepiece, used a heat gun on the pipe to make it more flexible, and then bent the pipe around our jig. It worked extremely well, and we are now on our way to building our sled.
This is our nosepiece and the jig it was built around. Next up, we have to connect this to other pieces of pipe, and build off of this frame. Jake and I can't wait!
