Very cool. Next one's you make, design in a Power 6 logo. That would put it over the top!
Good call!

OK,OK, a Power 6 it is. I will get it designed and cut in. I have my current set-up for sale, so I need some time to do it.
I'll post pics when done.

How expensive it is to get CNC work done like that?Here are some pics of a new set of arms being cut. Snapped these a week or so ago.
Thanks

that motorcycle wheel is nice, is that guy a mason?
Well the programming is the hardest part. For a 3D part, it takes about 3hours to get a solid model so you can create a tool path. The trailing arm was pretty easy as I desinged it in 2D. It took about 45 min. When I did my blower intake for my 409 car, that took about 25 hours. The price is about $55 hour shop rate. The good news is the machine does its part pretty fast. It only takes about 30 min to cut each side, so 2 hours and you have a set of arms. I cannot offer to make parts for board members as I am not a vendor. I have been down that trail and it is not for me. I would help guys out if I could, but I cannot make them parts without being a vendor. No selling or offers I was told.
Sorry

if someone is good at 3-D AutoCAD modeling, can that be done at home so shop time is reduced? I'd like to get info so when I go searching for a place I'll have some knowledge.
