87sheerips Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 Just wondering if anyone has a CAD drawing of a swingarm. Going to try a simple a design in my next CNC Class. Any response would be great!! thanks.... Quote
dawarriorman Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 So what exactly are you going to do if you use someone elses drawing? Quote
87sheerips Posted January 23, 2006 Author Report Posted January 23, 2006 CNC Mill it hopefully, I dont have time to do the whole design myself. Im looking to do some type of square tubing seinger, I saw a completely milled aluminum one on planet sand that was sick. Quote
PUSH THE THROTTLE Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 It wouldn't take you that much time to design your own. Not sure why anybody would want to give you a drawing they are kind of proprietary. Why don't you do something easy like a rear brake blockoff plate or a front brake cover? Quote
frocashmoney24 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 ive been using cad for 3 years now, i probably could draw a swinger if i had the dimensions. ive drawn whole vehicles before. dunno how ur going to do it on a cnc machine.... Quote
G-MC Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 It don't take much to make a CAD drawing if you simply get the dimensions. Quote
fast87 Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 i think a mini swingarm keychain made of billet aluminum would be sick, same goes for a banshee frame, seat or anything like that..maybe some handlebars?? i'd pay a few bucks for something that nobody else has, banshee or quad related that is...hell a mini toyota pickup like mine would be fuckin sweet ass, even if its the size of a hotwheels i'd buy it...all aluminum of coarse, i cant be the only guy here either, good luck ~Mark~ Quote
dalegoldston Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 cad you need to learn Pro Engineer. I could draw one up in 12 hours or so. Hell in 2d it would be even easier. Call Lone Star and see if they any old designs you could work off of. Quote

Hilarious Posted January 26, 2006 Report Posted January 26, 2006 12 hours??? I'd be pissed if it took my drafters 12 hours tell me you meant 1-2 tops? I second that. If you using autocad, that shit is easy. 2d or 3d. It helps too, when you do that shit for a living. Quote

87sheerips Posted February 2, 2006 Author Report Posted February 2, 2006 Yea, thats all I need is the dimentions, I am familiar with catia, I-Deas and CadKey. Even if not a swinger, the rear brake block off would be an easy lil project too. Some swinger dimentions would be kick ass!!! Quote
dalegoldston Posted February 2, 2006 Report Posted February 2, 2006 Man if you can design a part, create an assembly then do a full dimensioned drawing with format in 1 or 2 hours. Then you are breaking land speed records 12 hours might be a bit much but 1 or 2 is not possiable. Hell you would have to draw out at least 6 or seven different parts then create an assembly off them with weldment callouts. But its all good. Hope the dude got his plans for his cnc project. Quote

Yeah, I might would donate bout 12 hours or so of my time and draw ya up a swing arm if you send me one that you built from my drawing. Quote
