This is my homemade ppg quad based on BlackHawk's Lowboy. I could have bought one of theirs when I purchased the other gear but I wanted to make my own. I have some experience in fabrication and enjoy building and customizing bikes so I thought I would give it a shot. Had I bought a quad I probably would have been flying months ago, but it's the journey that trips my trigger, and building this thing has been has been quite a journey fraught with some frustration and satisfaction. If the welds hold up after I dawg it at the flying field then she'll soon get a coat of paint.

What she's made of:
1" X 0.125 aluminum tube 6061
3/4" x 0.125 x 6" pieces, aluminum tube 6061 (used for connection inserts)
1.125 x 0.060 4130 chromoly steel tube
1/4" T8 SS bolts and locknuts
1/8" 7x19 steel cable (2000 lb. shear) inside frame
BlackHawk Airmax 220 electric/pull start (the beast)
