Today I did some lathe work for a change. I machined the end caps for the steering cylinders. The inside diameter is 5 mm, so the tools are quite small.
I took a video of it and I will load it to Youtube.

I read the other project excitedly over and over again. I follow this project with no patience. how do you draw the drawings.how do you do the scaling. where do you get the pictures inspired by.I'm waiting for your answer. I want to draw too. I would be very happy if you give me information about what I'm looking at. do you help me find pictures of real pieces? Thank you

I got the tires from Premacon and I'm drawing the rims at the moment. I hope I can start machining them tomorrow.

Do you use and glue on aluminum or weld? I’ve been finding a lot of uses for some of the adhesives industry offers. And some of the stuff is more effective than welding. Depending on the design and application. Parts are looking good!! Build is amazing!!

Hello hemi1966,
I am very impressed with your work. I am a fellow machinist and I also use fusion 360 for my CAD and CAM. I want to start a build of my own but the biggest obstacle finding scale drawings or even the 1:1 size to be able to scale down. Can you please share where you are getting your dimensions from. Also some photos of your machines and maybe some work holding. I really like the idea of building them yourself versus buying a manufactured version. Thank you in advance for the help with the drawing sources. Jeremy.

This is absolutely amazing!!! I can’t wait to see more progress of this fantastic project. I’m hoping to start my very first project. I am no where near such expertise as this but it sure is inspiring.

Can’t wait to see what happens next!

With this I have not use glue, but on some previous projects I have.

The big difficulty when making these is the lack of scale drawings
I first get a 1:50 scale die cast model of the object, with that you can get some measurement.
The machine brochure usually have some dimension drawings.
One place to look is also this: https://avspare.com/, there you can get some idea of the parts.

Drawing a part that is more complex often takes more time than actual machining. The following parts assembly I was drawing many, many, hours

Thank you for the reply. I hadn't thought about scaling up. I was afraid of the dimension from the smaller die-cast models being to far off. I will give it a go and start drawing some things and assembling the 3d components in fusion. Thanks again.

Dimensions of smaller details that are impossible to cast in small scale might be slightly off, but most dimensions are correct enough.
