Popular Post Dave Monk Posted October 6, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) My first attempt at making a pattern and cutting of a car. I am not totally satisfied of the outcome but my customer was pleased..............I guess that's what's important.

Scrappile Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 The pattern and cutting look mighty fine to me. What a beautiful little 280Z. My wife and I had one for several years. There was one thing I didn't like one thing about it, it had a voice (nagging female) that told you things like "your lights are on", "your are low on gas".. so some woman was nagging at me even when the wife wasn't along!

kmmcrafts Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Very nice job with both the pattern and the cutting.. I always liked those little cars.. My friend in high school had one that he dropped a small block Chevy 350 into the engine bay.. LOL Talk about a scooting little car, LOL.... My son says that is the car he'd want if he was to own a car.. He's into the Dodge First Gen Cummins trucks though.. him and brother in law built a 750Hp twin turbo 94 cummins truck to race at the track and now they are building a Nova with a Cummins. LOL..

Rob Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Dave, You might want to get your eyes checked, I can't see anything wrong with that. Lovely job and well up to your usual high standard! Rob Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Dave, if you did this piece using spiral blades, then you definitely don't suck at using them. This little Datsun looks amazing, there's no wonder the customer likes it. Len Dave Monk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blights69 Posted October 7, 2017 Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 Dave I think you are being a bit harsh on yourself it looks great from here and the customer is happy so all is good, I know the feeling you have though when something about it you are not happy with but the good thing is it went straight out the door so its gone and finished my one I am not happy with is still on my wall reminding me not to do it that way again lol. But as I said looks great from what I can see was it all done with a spiral is that what you are not happy with ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to make a lot of adjustments on the fly and leave a lot of the little stuff out. Datsun1.pdf Datsun2.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
