How the hell do you do that?
Car is looking awesome Mark you gotta be pleased.
Using the lounge as a workshop pretty cool too although not sure that Mrs G would be happy for me to use our lounge for car stuff
Keep up the good work

Took me a long while using a 3D cad program, that is the 4th attempt I think
Had to hoover the lounge after I had finished !
Not allowed to keep motorbike in there over the winter though

Some progress on diff cover
I've been trying to learn some 3d tool path software and had some luck.

The outside with the fins is proving far more difficult and I'm stuck at the moment !

I suppose grinding them out with an angle grinder would be out of the question ? lol

It would need a lot of Solvol Autosol to make it shiny afterwards !

TCT blade in a grinder ? lol
If the fins are just straight, some sort of mill could machine them out ?

The fins follow the curve of the bowl in the cover, the machine I've been using is a type of mill - just has a posh name "CNC machining centre"
I'm a novice with the software, that's the main problem

Ahh right, get ya now, thought ya just meant the exterior fins which would finish sort of straight.
But yea they would contour at the bottom.
Although you managed to get the internal surface curved ?
