Time to unveil "Project Blackstone"

PLA burns out on a BBQ right? Make some lost wax (PLA) castings of some weber 3X2 intakes for a slant. I need to get back to my community college to take a course on 3d modeling. All my CAD stuff was 2D AutoCad and VersaCad for my first year and I lost that decades ago.



PLA melts at 400f, I think most people who do lost PLA melt it out in the same furnace they melt the aluminum in. But 400 is plenty do-able on a bbq.

I downloaded a hobbyist copy of fusion 360 5 years ago when I got my first printer. I've used it for bunches of small/medium projects and I'm decent for a hobbyist at this point. I've even done some tooling for work, and we shipped a one off custom system last week that has a part I designed.

I'm bumping against my limit with this cluster replacement, but I found the fusion community support is great. Might be worth just jumping in and messing around.
