Bridgeport CNC milling machine in team owners garage. I am currently milling our own scale grid. These are the plates that the scales will rest atop on the car grid (kind of resembling an alignment rack). The entire grid without scales is portable and weighes under 100lbs- yet will support 4000lbs and has adjustments for all three wheel bases being 105",108" and 110" cars.
This machine opens a whole new door for me in designing and engineering race parts. Tom is teaching me to use it to fabricate anything I need for the race car and I can use it for personal stuff as well.. I am still learning the MasterCAM program and how the FEA stress analysis program also works.
