I bought MeshCam, its a simple Cam program so I have to spend time compiling all the stages then edit them together, but at $250 Meshcam is way cheaper than the alternatives.....
Oh Yes MDF run though first, Glued some 1" thick boards together yesterday for the uprights and the large Plate... The Plate was $510 so not risking screwing that up

I only work 4 days from every 8 so get to spend most of those days in the shop. My wife works so when she's at work I can spend all day in there :-) Now it has been known for me to spend 12-14 hours in there a day when I'm Machining, and I have a lot of Machining to do now so no TV for me for a while.... PS thanks for the kind words bud..
Seems I have a few weeks of Machining ahead of me......
3 round billet's are for the bellhousing and the 2 rear uprights. 1" thick plate for the front engine mount 2" plate for the main cross piece bolted to the gearbox, then the 3/4" plate for the extension box between the bell and box....

I'm going on a Driving holiday of the USA soon, and it was about time to upgrade my daily driver. Buying a newer car and trying to sell 2 other cars i had has turned into a nightmare..... It's done now but I've had to repair my truck service my WRX before sale and do some work on a Cobalt I had... short story the last month I've not had much time to dedicate to this project, so not much progress 
The Cad work for all the billet parts takes some time to do but is almost done. The bellhousing is the last part to finish in cad, just waiting for the starter motor to come, and I'll be ordering the flywheel clutch unit to arrive when I get back from my hols.
Weight of the billet now.... no idea but very heavy, cost of all the Billet parts in that pic close to $2000. How its going to look once done Priceless.........
So question what colour to Anodize all these lovely billet parts once done ?
Gold ?
Blue ?
Red ?
Black ?
