ATTENTION FORD FEZ OWNERS-false floor

[ossy2004]

i mean measurements of new fez boot so i can go and buy the mdf wood for it.

needed ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!

no tape measue ?

if your gettin it from b&q its about 8quid for 1mx3m (roughly) ... cut it into 3 sections in b&q .... then measure up and cut to fit

 

[ossy2004]

i dont have my ford fez yet...i was thinking of gettin this now whilst iv money!

 

[-Pete-]

just go to somewhere like b&q or haldane fisher and buy a sheet of 15mm mdf and you can pick up a full sheet(8 feet by 4 feet) for no more than about 20 pounds tops.

 

[ossy2004]

its gettin it home joe thats the problem

 

[Pocket_rocket]

so your gonna try and make a boot build without having a car to set it into and see if anything fits? is that not kinda cart before the horse-ish?? what happens if your measurements are wrong and its all built then the car arrives only to find nothing will go in?

yeh ...dont be stupid ...use the money and go to the pub ....

 

[ossy2004]

yeh ...dont be stupid ...use the money and go to the pub ....

LOL

no i aint gona start cutting anything, just wana have large wack of mdf sitting here ready to be cut and cloth etc so that once i get car...i can start straight away..get me!?!

just liked to have everything in and ready to kick

buy it by the sheet as joeshaft says, much cheaper and you will have plenty spare to make other bits.
wouldn't advise haldane fisher though as they are very expensive. b&q are good and cheap.

hmm not sure about that kris, i always buy my sheet of haldanes, 17 pounds for an 8' by 4' of 18 mm and that includes any cutting i ask them to do, meh who knows, maybe theyre different in places?

 

[Krisclio ( SQD )]

well 18mm was £10.67 the last time i got one from b&q, including cutting it in 4. 12mm was about £8

although i use blane brothers in saintfield now as they do them at a good price for us.

 

[-Pete-]

that IS cheap!!! hmmm might have to be B&Q then for a visit! good man kris.

 

[Krisclio ( SQD )]

that was a wee while ago now so may be up a wee bit. but definately the cheapest place for joe public.

 

[Pacology]

12mm MDF is in and around the 12/13 pound mark, first 5 cuts free then 50p a shop after! (B N Q)

Ossy wants everything there to go when the car comes, i was going to go pick it up for him but a 8 by 4 i dont think will fit in the panda lol!

so if any one has the measurements please post them up

 

[Krisclio ( SQD )]

not really recommended, you need the car there to do a good job! guessing is not the way forward!

 

[Pacology]

not so much guessing! if some one has the dimensions and we can add a few inches on all round just to give a rough idea! BTW thisis not my idea just for the record lol

 

[ossy2004]

lmao cheers paul, this is true words, want everything sorted when cars comes, so all things can be done and dusted.
