Nice a 4200

On my vinyl cutter, sign cut, I just search for what ever im looking for in images, save, convert to Vector, Size, and go, is it possible to do similar for 3D printing, OR do I have to draw everything

How did these end up holding up? Did you have to adjust anything

Wow! Just wow! I hope this wing isn’t going to see any track time. If so, that’s quite the dangerous piece you’ve built there. No doubt that the element will make downforce, the most alarming thing I see is your wing to stanchion mounts will fail first. Waaay too thin. Second, fixing the side to side “wobble” with wire will defeat the purpose of the wing element as the downforce action actually comes from compressing the airflow UNDERNEATH the airfoil. The wires will only introduce turbulence to the money side of the element. Also, aircraft spruce doesn’t advertise it but they can cut you a foam core in the length you are looking for for cheap. Eureka aircraft also cuts foam cores. Many hobby aircraft places that deal with competition model aircraft can cut you foam cores. I’m just speaking from experience. I’ve built several wings. There’s a reason people use 6061 aluminum for stanchions and wing mounts. You look kind of you so you may not remember the Subaru WRX that had catastrophic wing failure because he decided to raise the Stanchions on an APR GTC300 wing. Engineers got involved and found the cause of the problem. I wish you the best and hope you keep that wing for street use because you will learn quickly that carbon is strong until it isn’t. Carbon failure is catastrophic

That wing is definitely creating lift i would angle it forward more

Imagine the air forcing it around, shouldn't move, it would probably break. I think either adding more dimension and structure to the supports or add tension cables, they wouldn't be unsightly.

In my opinion you should add more support at the base where it connects to the trunk it would also add more asthetics rather than the x brace idea hope I helped lol I play alot of video games and they seem to do that 😂😂😂

Some tension cables would do the trick. I dont think itd be unsightly either, certainly better than a wobbly spoiler lol

ever heard of a step bit?

Wow, you figured out 1820s technology..🤣🤣🤣

Wow you just taught us about countersinking a hole.

Or just use a countersink 😂

Just put a piece of 2x4 under it before you drill. Problem solved.

I just drill through one side and then on the other side I just kinda run the drill bit along the edges at an angle. Never w a press this is just with a hand drill when I need to make a hole in the back of electrical boxes usually

You could skip the extra tools and just use oil and face the back of the piece with a wood block

That drill will bite and eventually try to kill you. Get a deburring tool please.

You discovered chamfer

Bro that looks great.

Wow. How life changing ...

Somebody get this man a deburring tool.

I hate backside blowout.

What about clamping another piece of scrap to the back? I used this is drilling cabinet doors witha scrap of wood and it works perfectly. I have no idea though if it translates to metal.

So you don't have a bench grinder or a flap disk?

You could just use a debur or countersink to clean it up

just put a piece of wood under it...

Or just use a sheet metal drill bit

Wood backer

Run the same size bit through the side with the burr in reverse…..

You have got to be kidding me, perhaps that's a big waste of time. Just take the bit you are drilling with and drill from other side.

If I want a clean round hole in sheet metal a step bit makes round holes because it is not fluted like a drill bit and the next larger step is a built in counter sink if you need one.

Use a counter sink

So did it work?

Measure twice. Cut once!

Thank you so much for sharing these... im wanting to boost my 03 tb but the stock mgmt is just so limited which leaves me swapping to an 06 pcm, or ecumaster After seeing this short segment (and your other video) i see its possible to run it, but i must ask... do you think it is possible to run the ecu master piggy back with the stock pcm? As in, i'd still have my gauges, starter functionality, etc But the ecumaster manages the motor

Great video dude, just remember prep is everything!

OMG how did I not think about this specially if you can get it while it's printing you can have it embedded😮

New , they've been around for several decades 😂😂😂

Those are called t nuts in the furniture business. They have a machine that pushes them in and you absolutely DO NOT want to get your finger in it! It will literally t nut your finger lol

"New" way 😅 If that's new then im the pope 😂

Maybe if pressed a soldering iron with a big tip you could get them embedded a little deeper

Where is the new part?

They are designed for feet for furniture. Can pick em up at home depot.

Aluminum would be just fine lol

Great idea! Thanks for posting!

Carris Reels

New? 😅

Is that a selig airfoil?

This looks like it would work fine for any rotational forces, but anything that would press the insert outwards would free it up pretty quick... Maybe if it had vanes cut into the cylindrical portion like brass inserts, that way there's more grip inside the actual structure of the part?
