For a smaller mount, you could do it quite easily with a vice and a hacksaw, and some files, but for something so large, a properly equiped mill would be needed, especially with thick pieces of aluminium.

As for which vehicle to convert... take your pick. Try looking in the buggy section, or for something more simple, consider a Revo.

And how do I get some holes in there then? So for a 1/8 motor mount I would need these things?
- Vice
- Hacksaw
- Some Files
- Drillpress? ( Or what would be good 2, something cheaper maybe? )
