In this thrilling episode from StanceWorks, the team delves into the intricate world of crafting a-pillar bars for their custom F40 tube chassis. Facing the daunting challenge of achieving perfection in fabrication, they enlist the help of Nathan Gardner and his replica a-pillar piece, along with custom molds. With the original F40 steel a-pillars out of reach, the team meticulously works to replicate their essence using molds and measurements from a real F40, showcasing their unwavering commitment to precision.

Utilizing the power of Fusion 360, the team designs a template to ensure the correct positioning of the factory door hinges, a critical component for the project's success. Introducing innovative tools like the magnetic machined shim set from Fireball tool, they demonstrate the importance of partnerships in achieving top-notch fabrication results. The meticulous welding process and use of laser-cut spacers highlight the team's dedication to accuracy and quality in their work.

As they trim the main hoop to align with the roof line, the team addresses concerns about leaving space for a headliner, boldly declaring their intent to create a race car-inspired interior devoid of such luxuries. Through meticulous planning and execution, the team ensures that the a-pillar bars and chassis components are positioned flawlessly, setting the stage for the next phase of this high-stakes project.
