    Pushing CAD for what you do is really best practice. I have access to Solidworks and at 75 using it to design my project it's like, where have you been all my life!

    As someone who has been a design engineer for 22 years, good job with the CAD demo.

    I agree with you on the CAD stuff. It's difficult to pick up from only an explanation though. My advice is to pick something you either already made or already drew, and just dive in to CAD it. Everything starts to come together when you know what you need the CAD to do.
    Congrats Elio! Looking forward to see what you get in to!

    You should design panels like that to use the holes to bolt it down when you can so it eliminates the welding step and doesn't warp the panel

    Ooooh, I'm early this time! :D
    At the beginning I had been thinking it would be kinda cool if you gave it some slight bucket backs behind the seating positions, even though it's a bench seat, but I'm not sure that would have looked as good.
    As cool as it looks, the bead forming technique seems kind of expensive in materials if you end up making a lot of forms you don't end up reusing. I suppose to some extent they could be recycled. Like if you needed a bead with the same arc, but shorter, you could cut that one down and weld a new end on the mid and top pieces. The back could stay the same, since it just goes behind everything anyway. You even already have the placement of the holes in CAD format already that you could cut and paste onto a new drawing.
    I dunno. Just thoughts. :D

    This Flo forming is so interesting. You’ve done a lot of 1” beads. Do you think it’s possible to go wider or narrower? Just curious if there is a reason behind the bead size.

    Can you use some sort of composite instead of wood like Coosa board? Since it is an open top car, something that does not absorb water is a nice feature. I known the upholstery also absorbs water, but there isn't much you can do about that.

    You forgot to mention sanding, drilling or punishing aluminium removes anodising. Stainless bolts and washers, steel/alloy separation and protective coatings essential

    Do you use any type of lubricants when doing the flow forming ? I’ve noticed some guy I watch use oil mix when using a power hammer or pull max. Would it help with flow forming ?
    Seat project please. I would like to build the same seat for my roadster

    Great look Karl but having your legs extended for hours might just be a touch painful on trips. Its kind of why a rig is more elevated from the factory.... excluding corvettes or other roadster look model vehicles... Its going to look and get looks... just wondering how its going to feel after say eight hours of driving to shows

    So where do I find “command window” ? Is that the spyware you use with your latest video scan rectangle thingy??

    Damn Elio, you need a haircut so badly. Your head looks like a big cue ball. By the way, i really like your work! Tell Carl to quit saying "weld the holes up", it's just weld them, not weld them up! Always watch you guys, you do some really fine work with some fine ideas. Cudos!
