I wanted to get a gauge pod for the ashtray but they aren't offered anymore so I decided to draw one up in solidworks and print it out on a FDM machine out of ABS plastic so its pretty tough. I printed it in 3 pieces to test fit it all. The top section inst glued together in the pic yet since im going to make some small adjustments to the model. Took ~3.5hrs of time to print but im pretty happy with the results The only thing left to do is prime it and paint it to match the center console.

 

Thats pretty awesome, could you make one angled a bit toward the driver? How much would you charge for that?

 

Looks good, and nicely done

 

Looks fantastic! I too wish that it were clocked 25* to 30* toward the driver though. I'd buy one. Great job of designing and execution!

 

I wish I was this productive when I'm bored

Nice job!

 

Wow that looks pretty good. If you start selling them, Pm me and i will pick one up from you

 

I went to a cad dimensions 3d seminar in engineering or college and watched a planetary gear box get printed all assembled. Amazing stuff

 

I would be interested in buying 1 as well.

 

as would I, i would honestly pay 20$ for sumthin like this lol

 

Making it angled towards the driver would be as difficult as modifying my 3d model and printing another one. As far as selling them I don't know how cheap I can make them since its a rather time consuming process and I have to babysit it while its printing. I'll let you guys know though.

 

cool let us know man, i bet you could make sum pretty decent sales with these. good luck and thank you

 

Definitely cool. I'd be in for one as well ! Especially if it was angled. Great job OP!

 

Damn man you could make some money off of this!

 

Hit me up too for an angled one if u get around to selling them. Looks great.

 

What 3d printer do you use ? Water soluble?
