Billet refers to a cast semi finished product. It is also referred to as ingot, particularly for smaller sizes. A billet is typically cast to a rectangular, hexagonal or round cross section compatible with secondary processing, e.g. forging or milling. It can be produced either as coil or cut lengths. Ingots and billets are collectively known as bar stock.

So...your arms are cast?

Billet means more than just aluminum.

Real nice work Yoshi. Looking forward to seeing some video when this one is done

Those arms are very nice. CNC machined from a chunk of billet, right?

And boxing in the tabs on the spindle to keep them from bending under braking?

They are actually the rear hubs, and yes, they will be boxed in, the ones in the pic are just the mockups to help get the points. There will also be some additional side gusseting.....
