    Hobbyist here. Learning 'everything' it seems. Thanks for the video, I just subscribed.

    Nice to see a fellow Alibre user. I really need to make dropped spindle like this for my SN95 (Mustang) spindles that I have adapted to my Volvo 242.

      Yeah I've been very happy with alibre so far. How do you like it?

      @@519Kustomz I've had Alibre since 2011, version 13 I think. Stopped using it a few years ago and started using Fusion for CAD and CAM however I am going to get the latest Alibre update (have v23) and start using it again with Sprutcam.

    Nicely done. Watched all of it - a final fit to the vehicle, even if 5 minutes, woupd be nice to see.

    Brother… You got skills… And it is inspiring to see them here in this video, keep doing you… Would love to see more! For me, I never thought about taking CNC plates, and putting them together into parts, quite like that… And your other videos where you made the chassis the same way… Are also inspiring! 👍🏼😎👍🏼

    Very Impressive overall, one of the better fabrication videos I've seen on here doing this kind of work, a bit of undercut on the Mig work, but that can be dialed in on the machine or blended out with a little abrasive work. Definitely will be keeping an eye on this channel. I'll have to look into the Alibre program too and do some fusion comparisons.

    • @519Kustomz
      @519Kustomz  Рік тому

      Thanks! I do end up using both programs, but I am much faster at Alibre since I learned on that one.

    Learned alot,I'm building my own spindles for a project. I was curious about how much they weigh

    • @519Kustomz
      @519Kustomz  Рік тому

      These are around 31lbs each. Lots of metal in them...

    I was doing some research on lowering a 2011 2500HD and found a post talking about some lowering spindles you built. Happened to see I'm subscribed and wanted to know if these are still something you can produce.

      I still have the fixtures but I don’t have much time to make them. Shop is pretty jammed. Also the cost of everything has gone up since I had the stuff cut for these so I would have to reprice them. No promises but If you are interested Dan@519kustomz.com
