Not all 3D scanning is alike, and the right workflow can depend on the object involved. [Ding Dong Drift] demonstrates this in his 3D scan of a project car. His goal is to design custom attachments, ...
The Maverick was a highly successful model right from the start, with Ford struggling to keep up with the number of orders it ...
We’ve said it again and again: every garage needs a 3D printer. If our word isn’t gold for you, just take a look back at The Great Ford Maverick 3D Print-Off where Peter Holderith and I designed some ...
The Elegoo Centauri Carbon is a cool-looking 3D printer you can get for $300. I’d never run a 3D printer in my life before this thing showed up at my shop, and I had a few significant hiccups getting ...
It's cheaper and much more efficient to print spare parts for increasingly rare classic cars. Our team tests, rates, and reviews more than 1,500 products each year to help you make better buying ...
Car design may still be led by the heart, not the head, but VW is experimenting with artificial intelligence that could dramatically change how components are made, even growing them using ...
When I was growing up, my dad and I restored classic cars. Combing junkyards for the pieces we needed was a mixture of interesting and frustrating since there was always something you couldn’t find no ...
Even the most dedicated gearhead can’t restore a classic car without the right parts. The older and/or rarer the car, the harder it is to find parts for. But Porsche is using new technology to keep ...
Last week we took a look at how Lamborghini is using forged composite carbon fiber in car production. But forged composites aren't the only game in town when it comes to cutting edge materials.
VW has been working with HP and Siemens to scale up 3D metal printing processes to make car parts. Metallic 3D-printed parts weigh half as much as those produced from sheet steel, allowing the ...
Building hot rods remained basically the same for decades, with tried-and-true “old school” methods being used to create increasingly complex builds. Computers really changed the game, allowing things ...
