Red Bull Racing RB7: Step by Step
01
Lay the Lexan (polycarbonate) running body, supplied with this pack, flat on your
work surface. Because you will be using sharp tools in this session – Lexan shears
and a reamer – it's best to place it on a cutting mat. The lines along which you have to cut,
indicated by dotted red lines in the following steps, are also visible as indentations
moulded into the body itself.
03
To make the holes, place the
tip of the reamer into the
indentation of each hole, then twist it
back and forth to bore out an opening.
Use only a little pressure as you do this,
and continue until the hole reaches the
desired width.
04
If there are any shreds of plastic left around the holes after you've reamed them
out, de-burr them using the reamer or a knife. Be very careful, and do this from the
inside because the outside has a thin protective film covering that should be left intact.

02
There are small, circular
indentations in the locations
indicated by the dotted red circles. Using
a reamer (see Step 03), make the lower
two of these into small holes of about
1mm in diameter and the arrowed one
into a 5mm hole.
