- [Instructor] Chapter 02_06, we're going to start forming the body of the rear arm. It might take a couple of videos, maybe three, to get this done. But let's have a little look at what we are going to make. So over to the PDF first. And here it is, the rear arm. And the reason it's a little bit tricky is because it's got a few scollops out in that direction and curving around in this direction, so we have to use an intersect method for that. And also on the top end, we've got a similar sort of thing, it doesn't go all the way through. We've got like a millimeter thickness on the back plate here so that push/pull doesn't work all the way through, so we have to do another intersect method. Then we've got these little grommets for the cables, and then we've got some holes as well. So we'll start off by creating the basic shape, we'll scollop these edges out. And then we'll come back and do these next bits, and then we'll finish off with these cables holes and see how we get on. So a…
