With the team putting in their preparation efforts around work, we have started with a chassis and the first edits have been made.

There is an intention to get some Swagelok components onto the final design. With our products able to sustain extreme environments some of the discussions have been elaborate! We are looking forward to seeing which of the grand schemes will come to fruition. 

The driver and co-pilot have been decided - two members of our fabrication department, which means we now have a good idea of the overall weight the Soap Box is dealing with and are able to make some good calculations in regards to support, stability and braking.
