What program are you using for modeling? It almost looks like Inventor if I had to guess.

Almost 99% i MasterCam X4-5, not much in Inventor, though I have that too...

welcome to rcc !

We start small :)

This is the beginning of my new chassi in the Volvo 142 from 1973.

Damn son, that's some grade A+ fabrication right there.

More Chassi, and the welding-jig to put the car on when I cut the floor out.

Holy shit how long did it take to make all the components for the e-shaft? And how many times did you measure?

I wish i could come hang out at your shop for a year or so to learn.

Beautiful work thus far! Definitely interested in this project.

Hmm, I really don't know. Too long :) I had to learn how a CNC-Lathe worked first, so the E-shaft was my training-tutorial :) But there is many small things that took long time in total.


Haha, I don't have a shop, its my work-place. The boss lets me use the machines after work and weekends. Free Education he says :)


Hopefully that will stay then :D
