I want to give anyone that is thinking about building a chassis from brass a single place to find the resources they may need. I searched high and low to find some tutorials and here is the results of my labor.  If you have an article or pictures of a simple brass chassis please send them to me so I can add them. I don't want to get into anything to elaborate because I think www.Scratchbuilt.com has that covered.
I would like to thank each of the authors for their great articles.

Here is a collection of scratch built chassis I found on the internet and online forum.  If you have some pictures you want to add to the list please send them to me.

What you will need to get started by BWA.
bwaminispeed: You only need 1/16" tube and rod,3/32 tube,1/8 tube and 5/32 tube, and all 4 sizes in square as well.
bwaminispeed: Couple of pieces in each of these sizes will keep you going
bwaminispeed: .047,.050,.063,.078(motor shaft size) and .093 music wire should do you
bwaminispeed: .093 is axle size
 
 
 
I will be posting pictures of my brass chassis soon. I'm going to use a combination of Larry G's theory, Chris B's "Torsion Bar Chassis" and Al P's instruction and common sense. I also want to try Larry S's Brass F1 chassis.
