CAD help

[HRG]

Does anyone here work on CAD? I'd like a drawing knocking up if it's possible. It's not for me, it's to make the dims available to others for getting wishbone bushes out of a TIV.

Now the finished article looks like this:



However my sketch is a little, well fag packety



The only dimension I'm unsure of is the length of the chamfer. It's definitely 45 degrees and about 9.5 mm but I've currently misplaced the darn thing so I can't measure it accurately

If it's possible could it also be exported to a web viewable format so people can use it

How much are you paying? I'll do it at lunch if you want?

[HRG]

Afraid my budget only runs to one of these

[pimpin gimp]

I'll see what I can do.

what's your line of business? I might ask for a favour one day.

I dont mind helping out a fellow TIV driver...

I cant get onto it til tonight though...



edited to add: Looks like you've found help now, as you were.

can you take a photo a little more clearly of the sketch? struggling to see if there is a chamfer on the left where 3mm is detailed.

IT... Always happy to return a favour with a favour

There's no chamfer on the left, just a .1 rebate to locate the "Top Hat" so it doesn't slip under load.

How's this?

[pimpin gimp]

Not sure how you'd want it web hosted? I can email you a pdf/dwf/dwg file if you want though.

[HRG]

Marvellous

Could I be cheeky and ask for a couple of changes.

First, could you change the 10mm dimension to 10.5, it's M10 clearance for a threaded rod.

Second, the 45 degree chamfer is approx 10 mm which gives a flat face to butt up to the actual wishbone as opposed to a point eg.

50 mm OD - 27.1 ID -2X 10MM chamfer = 2.9mm /2 =1.45mm thrust face.

I'll PM you so you've got my e-mail addy.

Thanks very much, I really appreciate it. I'll have to go and write up how it's used now

I've had a go as well, using the latest in cad s/w.
Surprisingly it's very similar to the original
You can have in in any format including mspaint and fagpacket

[pimpin gimp]

I've just made those changes.

no idea how to pickup my pm's though. do they go to my email?

[Davi]

[pimpin gimp]

Ah, that's much better than mine so there's no need to pm me. I'd used davi's if I were you.

[HRG]

Thank you both very much for your help... That's exactly what I needed


Oh, and

To be a bit picky, his diagram (and yours) should make clear that the majority of the dimensions are diameters, or I may accidentally make it square

[HRG]

I'll put the original pic up too "just in case"

ETA:
Nice instructional action shot
