MK Indy in Autocad
does anyone have a 3D model of an MK Indy, without the bonet on so you can see the engine?
Just got a 3D printer at work ... Wooohoooo!!!

They look impressive! I was wondering though, they seem like they do a similar job as an SLA machine (stereo lithography), except without a laser and
epoxy resin.
If you can find out from the machine you have, would mind telling me what the accuracy/repeatability of the parts that can be produced are? I had a
quick look at the website, but they don't mention accuracy.....
Cheers!

Dammit! Too many decisions....

It works just like an inket printer, and the accuracy/repeatability is just the same. Its abit slow though, takes 4 hours to make something the size
of a computer mouse.
This one doesnt print colour though

I saw a Stereo Lith' machine at University making an exhaust manifold for a Rover. It was taken straight out and flow tested immediately. Very
impressive ! Saves 3 months of development time !
"just like that !"

You can create all sorts with SLA. Including complete assemblies in one go with working components.. All good stuff.
We had an RP done of a table for a project last year.
Warwick have done some rapid protoyping for Ann Summers in the past, I will let you think about what they could have done....

I have got CAD of the chassis and bodywork of a locost (its on my website), but couldnt be arsed to draw the engine etc in, as its just too time
consuming to do properly.
