I've been working non stop and I really want to work on the car already. Im at work right now.

Anyhoo, Im thinking about building a wooden jig to support the shell so I can sandblast the frame. Does anyone know the dimensions of a jig, or have a diagram of a jig?

Im thinking about making one out of wood due to cost and ease of dismantling, I have a mig, but rather not spend on steel and cutting it. I'd like to make a solid wooden jig that supports the shell on it's bottom base. I tried to google and search, i've seen pictures but not dimensions. FSM no help. =)
