finally!

Someone else understands how nice solids are!
Attached is a .dxf file of a
13b turbo block. It is close enough for rough
work. I didn't use a cmm or
digitizer, just graph paper, trace, and enter,
so it's not dead nuts, but it
is pretty close. The .dxf file will be 3D
wireframe only. I exported for
AutoCAD 12, if you have a newer version let me
know and I will export a
better solid or suface model. I have been too
busy to add all the bolt
holes, front cover, turbo etc. Hope somebody can
get some use out of it.

Monty, great stuff! Looks as if you have put a lot
of time into this.
What would the tolerance be approximatly? +/-
.xxx?

OK Chrissi since you now how to convert it to a 3D
drawing please
plot it to a gif file on hard disk from ACAD and
attach it to a message
for us so we all can see it.

Paul,

After Acad12 is open, you open Monty-mazda_13b.dxf.
After you go to the View button on the toolbars...go
down until you reach the 3d views button and down
there hit the SW isometric button. Voilą.

Is simple as that.
