I don’t have a router but I would consider buying one if it’s not too expensive. They range from $20-$300, is this the sort of thing I could cheap on?
You might be able to rent one, check the local home depot.
I use mine a lot but I’m into woodworking too… had my old craftsman that was my grandfathers. still kicking.
This is not the project to learn how to use a router. I wonder how far you can just get with some sandpaper on a dowel…

OK, some updates:
Built the battery: LG HG6 13s3p
Next I routed out 2mm on the sides to fit the battery. I’m so sorry @rey8801to do his to your baby, it looks like total garbage–I know nothing about woodworking and didn’t have equipment to set up a fence so I just freehanded it =/
Routed a little extra out at the top to fit the ESC’s and vwallah, this is one SNUG TIF, but it should work out!
I already knew the cavity in the choo choo was too small but I didn’t think about the enclosure…
so that’s fucked…Now I have to make a new enclosure and I’m not sure how hard thats gonna be. Any ideas guys on something not too complicated? Kydex?
