Another design assistance request.

[old man emu]

jimc,
I had a look at the free videos of that whole project, and have got some good help from them. It seems that the new "Gumball" facility in Rhino will be of great use. It reminded me of the way Sketchup works. I'll have to try to produce a decent set of 3-views to make a start. I can do the side and front views, but the plan view will take some thinking about.

LamdaFF, please check your PMs. I've sent you an important email.

Hi EMU,
Got around to it. Here's what I could come up with. If you're still interested in either the method or file, I'll post them.

Glad to help, it was a nice project. Might do it again if it's of use and interesting.

very cool - I particularly love the way he makes the design process look easy.
Yeah right !

Why not model it out of clay? Modeling clay will have some issues with the thin stuff.
Then you could scan it. Just my 2 pennies.

As to some one making the real thing. It isnt that far off from a zero turn radius drive for a landscaping mower. The question would be if you wanted it as a go cart or a actual car to be driven. Presuming this is where you were going with some of the above posts.

ome, there is a video tutorial for rhino on exactly what you are doing. its by far the best video i have seen for rhino. they guy goes step by step in making a toy car. it was extremely informative and loaded with alot of cool tips.
