TLicense Posted January 28, 2005 Author Share Posted January 28, 2005 LOL, to be honest if I've done any of it wrong I'd rather take my chances with the mob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted January 28, 2005 Author Share Posted January 28, 2005 Not sure what that means... but it sounds heavy. LOL, basically I've modelled some bodywork parts for our windtunnel model. We're having them machined from billet aluminium. We sent them out to the machine shop today, who quoted us £10K a side (1 LH/1 RH) Basically if I've not modelled anything right, hole diameters etc, then chances are they'll be scrap. Then again, we're also testing an alternative version of the part whilst these are being made. If they turn out to be any good, the parts I sent out today will be obsolete before they even arrive. The pace of development eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonB Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 We're having them machined from billet aluminium. See that's where you're going wrong at Williams, you want to make your bodywork out of carbon fibre, not metal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
