100% and this is something we are working on.

Computer simulated analysis of the tubular frame was carried out and I felt we should push the structure and rigidity higher.

We designed a gusset that would be laser cut and CNC folded which would fit both the tube diameters

The tube is T45 so using a 1.5mn S514 sheet we had made 180 of them to weld into the frame everywhere


This design has allowed for a very strong and lightweight frame. I haven’t seen this style in the pits before and feel it’s a real game changer

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a branch of fluid mechanics that uses numerical analysis and data structures to analyze and solve problems that involve fluid flows.

Computers are used to perform the calculations required to simulate the free-stream flow of the fluid, and the interaction of the fluid (liquids and gases) with surfaces defined by boundary conditions. With high-speed supercomputers, better solutions can be achieved, and are often required to solve the largest and most complex problems.

So we have refind our design put in it a giant super computer and this is what came out after 3 days of computing






Yes 3 Days the computer was working on it !!!!!!

I know that’s why there is 6 messages in your inbox trying hard to set up a call with you.

Yeah, sorry about that, been manically busy. I’ll make sure I find time.

In the meantime you can explain this to everyone :

Oh boy. Who’s doing your CFD? We need words.

The boundary layer condition on the wheels is affecting the rear wake region pretty badly. Need to correct that.

Impressive bit of kit James

You are 100% correct !

At first we though we could plat her hair but we quickly realised that Disney makes all heads very oversized. (Q the joke)

Her head and eyes where around 60% scale while her body was a pretty good 40%


So we pulled off her head bless her and drew her neck in CAD and 3D printed a 40% scale crash helmet


We also got her some cloths !

Yep your projects are definitely wacky...interestingly wacky but in a good way

Keep them coming

Weeks and weeks of cutting tube !


I have finally finished the chassis

impressive stuff as always
now you've got weeks of welding and adding those corner braces
you lucky lad, as my grandad used to say
neil.

that's not even a fortnight, wow!
neil.

amazing ...again....

Time for some Gusset action

that'll stiffen it up

I worry what it says about me that pics of WIlls gussets brought me joy. But they did.
