Easier to leave them out, that way it works in any car/configuration. ;)

I'm shooting to have one finished by the end of the week as a shakedown test, we'll see...

J/K Walt...its not like these are something that we pre-ordered in the 1000's and we have been told for months after months that we'll get them by the end of the week. I'm thinkin if you just have a safe and happy 4th of July weekend that most of us waiting will be happy with that :wink: .

Haha, yeah, I ended up getting bogged down in the CAM side of things, ended up being a bit more of a PITA than I expected.

Then I found an error in the model, so that was "yep, time to redo all of this...".

Have a happy 4th everyone!

Yeah, it was only a small change on the solid model, but the toolpath generation required a full redo to compensate...

We're a long way from "make the solid, get the part with optimized toolpaths!"

I may be clueless but just pleased as hell that I was able to contribute in a very small role. If only there was a profession to put people or business' together.
