Very impressive, great job. I went from ink and linen drawings to autocad during my working days but never made it to solid works before retiring. Technology sure is advancing, now I really feel old.

WOW!! Outstanding piece of work. This must have taken many hours, even for all of the parts, much less the assembly. You have to be at the top of the pile of Solidworks users. Congrats. What is your profession??

I design 4wd suspension components for the automotive aftermarket. I work a lot with OE CAD data and 3D scans.

Very neat. These are $1,000 to buy, yours would make a more accurate model.

Would you be willing to share/sell the files?

I'm building a custom supercharger setup for my engine and it would be super helpful to have an accurate model. I'm running Solidworks 2018.

This post is 4-1/2 years old. You'd probably have better luck contacting the author by private message.

That was the plan but I unfortunately haven't posted enough on the forums. I'll have to do a little more.

@nomadpsd

While I was searching for Model A backup lights your post showed up (Benson told about doing backups at his job).

Yes, I know and understand you started this thread 6 years ago. I'm posting this to express my amazement about what you and others like you have accomplished. Us old geezers can't even comprehend what you're doing much less how you do it.

So if you see this just take it as a pat on your back.

Thank You for the recognition. It makes all of the hours put into it worth it.
