Hey! Ya, I'd like to see that too!... I've been messing around with one myself, but it's just for shat's n' looks.  It'll be a few years before I have the garage tools to fab one up outa aluminum!




Underneath...I've installed the GORDON Frame Kit.....quite beautiful I think.. ahah


Cheers!

damn nut, that's way cool!!  solidworks?  proE? 

and i like the way you have a frame kit in there, nicely done!  when's the next batch ship??   

[HedNut]

Thanks WannaB... I did that in Bently MicroStation.   The second batch of Gordon Frame kits will be finished with the first batch of kits...they should be done in a week or less.  I'll be talking to the machinist this week, and I'll keep you all informed! Cheers!

Very Cool!...I like your style.

Thanks. Haven't done much in quite a while, too much other crap going on. Used to do it for fun.

PovRay will do your model, and there's PovRay plugins that will do specular lighting and light-maps, etc. Makes models really pop.
