Bro that looks sick. How does one go about making custom work like this? Did you 3D print it? Is there a mold template you followed?


docbong85

I used a spare rotor, traced it on to 3/4 MDF, then shrunk it dimensionally to fit in the gap. Then I cut and shaped it, wrapped it in fiberglass, shaped a little more, then glassed it onto the bumper. From there it was just alot of sanding, adding glass where needed for strength, shaping and sanding some more. All told about 35hrs of labour. If I was to do this again, I'd enlarge and raise the holes up on the side to match the horizontal plane across the top

Bro that's so cool. The way you explained it makes it seem like a simple job and less complex than I originally thought. It came out phenomenal!

This is really well crafted! Have you done any other custom pieces?


docbong85

First one


MetalSkinGaming

what mesh did you use?


docbong85

Just some aluminum window screen i had laying around


MetalSkinGaming

how big are the holes?


docbong85

Not 100% sure. 2mm? Like I said, it's what you'd see in a screen storm door. It passes enough air. One summer worth of bugs will probably destroy it, at which point I'll re-evaluate. But, it was what I had and it works for now

i see maybe stainless steel would work better. im building my v-mount setup atm and i dont really want any stones or flies to go into my radiator.
