Go Kart DXF

[Brad93]

Friends boy has got right into go karts he is only 6. Gonna make him a piece of wall art / sign for his bedroom.

Before I buy one of these designs off Etsy has anyone got a DXF already?

Something like this.

What size roughly do you want it?

 

[Brad93]

About 400x400

What one of the ones you've shown are you after, I could probably sort something out later if you wanted.

 

[Brad93]

I think I can probably import the photo into fusion and calibrate it, it’s obviously just a lot more work.

About 400x400

Would something like this fusion model do you?
430 wide 270 high approx

As @eLuSiVeMiTe says

Practice

I use Fusion a lot for Plasma so things like that are fairly straightforward.

Plasma simulation.

I need to practice more for my plasma as well as doing modelling. I use QCAD which is rubbish but its easy to use, free, and gets the job done

 

[Hood]

Fusion is easy enough, then again I used SolidWorks for years and it is fairly similar to that.
I used BobCAD for the CAM side of things previously but they wanted nearly £3k for an upgrade so I said to heck with that and went with Fusion.
Luckily it was over Christmas/New Year I decided to try it so got a few weeks of relative peace to learn it. Bad thing was I bought the licence and 3 weeks later they were offering it half price, seems they do that twice a year so I may take a months holiday in January and wait for the Feb offer
