RE: [TANKS] 3D printer CAD

2016-11-01 Thread Doug Conn
I’ve been using Autodesk Fusion 360. It is free, full-featured, and pretty easy 
to use.

Autodesk inventor. You can legally get it free they want you to use it so 
badly. Its reasonably easy to learn, and very powerful

Re: [TANKS] Re: Suspension swing arms

2016-11-01 Thread Frank Pittelli
Are you referring to the PzKpfw VI-I Tiger Aus "FR"?  They only made a 
single vehicle of that model at the end of the war because they ran out 
of axles.  Fortunately, a brilliant German engineer determined that by 
reconfiguring the road wheels, they could get the "Letzte Tiger", as it 
was nicknamed, onto the battlefield.  Little else is documented about 
the Last Tiger. Legends say that it fought gallantly in the streets of 
Berlin in the final days of the war and was never defeated.  It was 
apparently hidden in a bombed out building and was later scrapped to 
build a number of VW buses driven by hippy U.S. college professors in 
the 1970's.

Interesting - 8 left and 7 right

At least you have the correct number for the left side
unlike an unnamed old decrepit Tiger that never had 
the correct number of road wheels on either side.

Also remember left sides had leading arms while right 
sides had trailing arms on real Panthers.
