Hellz yeah! Count me in! Ive been wanting to check that place out!

 

Yeah i throw something up. I have to work weekends again this month so i probably will not be able to attend...

Yup this is where its going to be. Everyone keeps saying @hoarder23 gets to pick the place for his last meetup.... Good thing im working! haha

what cha askin fer it?

 

If it is tomorrow that I have a 5K to run in the morning, so I wouldn't be able to at all.

Wish I could though!

 

Which one? I’m doing the Lakewide 5k in Flowermound.

 

Does anyone in here know how to use CAD?

 

How do I load a video on here?

 

Pretty sure it has to be uploaded to YouTube first. Then insert the link in your post

 

2 or 3d?

Upload to YouTube and post the link

 

What kind of CAD? I use AutoCAD at work.

 

I know how to use creo, solidworks and catia, but I have no access to cad at my current work, because my job description has no need for it, and the personal laptop I have solidworks on is virtually dead.

 

I don’t really know what cad to use. I will tell you what I am trying to do and maybe y’all can help me. I want to get a piece 3d printed for my overhead console so I can put the detached face of my ham radio in the over head

 

For a simple 3d object, any of the ones I mentioned would do. Solidworks is the most intuitive of the three that I’ve used.

Probably easiest to just send someone hand sketches from different orientations and have them do it for you.

 

Apprently there’s free cad softwares these days too. I guess I should look into them myself.

Edit: just looked at tinkercad. Seems to be ok enough for very simple stuff. Very simple interface, but have to do a lot of things ass backwards, so will take much longer to make something comapred to a regular cad software.

 

I have a Mac and I think is FreeCad and I tried to use it to make the part I was talking about and I can’t figure it out

 

Anyone looking for a first gen? Located in Killeen. 1999 - 220k Fox coilovers, SPC UCAs, AISIN Manual Hubs (didn’t know if they came stock like that or not), bilsteins in the rear. Dark Matte Bronze SCS F5’s with matching spare. Buddy of mine just traded a boat for it, so don’t know the history.
