    3D Scanner question

    The scan results in what's called a "point cloud" which is just a collection of points in a 3D space. From there, the software can be used to create a mesh, or a "solid" which can me manipulated, "traced" used as a reference etc. There are a number of videos showing various processes people...

    3D Scanner question

    I've been looking at them again. I borrowed a ferret pro a while back and it was interesting. There is definitely a learning curve to using them but nothing that seems insurmountable. The Inspire 2 looks promising per the usual you tube reviews. it will apparently do structured light scans in...

    Anyone buy a group of about 8 A body parts cars out of southwest PA this past summer?

    I think it's you that didn't get my point. We'll agree to disagree...

    You miss the part where drones have to broadcast the registration number? But by all means shoot one down and see how that goes for you.

    Anyone buy a group of about 8 A body parts cars out of southwest PA this past summer?

    When I first moved to Texas in 2017, neighbor decided it was a good idea to fly is DJI Mavic Pro over my property and watch what I was doing. I was moving stuff in and out of my garage reorganizing. I didn't know who it was at first, but it took about 2 minutes to find out by sending an email...

    Originality-does it matter?

    I used to worry about that with my 70 vert Cuda', which is a total rust bucket money pit of a POS, but it's mine... SO, I'm cloning a 71 since nothing will be "original" anyway and I prefer the 71 over the 70. Technically, the things I'll be changing can be reversed with a pile of front end...

    Request to create an EFI forum

    LOL, not upset, but to be that dismissive in order to make some fictious point was unwarranted. Also, it's been proven again and again, that a carburetor results in more power than EFI in MANY cases, IF one knows how to tune a carb etc. It is also a real issue that EFI is NOT always plug and...

    Request to create an EFI forum

    Yup, let's be honest, there are major companies making major parts for performance engines using 3d printing tech. Might be prototyping injection horns, or entire intake manifolds. They can also make shapes not possible using other methods so your point about 3d printing is not what I was going...

    Request to create an EFI forum

    A forum was added for 3d printing. This is arguably a more relevant topic. It's kind of a no brainer...

    Request to create an EFI forum

    Honestly I'd like to see something like that broken up into the various flavors like Holley, Factory, Speeduino, MegaSquirt, etc. Like it or not there is a valid place for it. Engine still gonna engine, suck, squeeze, bang, blow....

    New Delivery Service "UniUni" Beware !!!!!

    I've had them ignore "signature required" flags so many times I do whatever i can to avoid using them. Ordered a couple of grand with of sheet metal for my e-body and they did that to me. If there was a problem with any of the parts I wouldn't have had any recourse.

    What's you go to budget mig wire?

    Yeah sorry I didn't realize it was flux. Not sure if that changes anything buys thinner wire always means less heat overall. You're going to need flux core though which I think means you're stuck with 0.30 min
