draft

well, i guess i should just call the previous image as a sketch because i've since looked into drafting programs and found some pretty neat stuff.

Solid Edge is a cool app that provides a tonne of ultra-convenient tools to draft an object in 2D. it is hard to know where to begin but the tutorials are pretty helpful. there are tools called 'relationships' that allow you to link the sizes of certain lines etc... would love to be in on coding it! :)

so in a couple more days i'll post a draft of what i'm going to build. complete with dimensions and everything!

i also checked out some aluminum yesterday. going to shop around though. i think i should be able to find some old shielding or something somewhere... we'll see. also have to pick up an alternator soon.
