I look at that and think you don't need a 2-axis cnc (though one is nice). Just a way to print full size blue prints and lots of jig saw blades (or a bandsaw with an enlarged table).
I am interested in doing this... just looking for advice.
I've seen some 3d models (suggested in this forum) for the 427.

Absolutely! Would love the 427 3d model! Thanks... !!!!!!! slackkeymike@comcast.net
What s/w to view?
Do you have a picture of the finished buck before you started to lay down any glass (on your current project)?

Ozgur, am I doing something wrong with the model? I downloaded the edrawings viewer. There is not much to see in the model. It looks like a top down view of the 427, white lines on a black background.

That is AMAZING! Are the strips plywood? How important was it to get all the surfaces "rounded" so to speak? Did you use "filler"?

Oz,
The Autodesk viewer worked much better... could see the shell just fine... I am not seeing any slices... is that something I have to do?
I have a friend who has autocad... can he do this for me with your dfx file?
How finely sliced should it be? How does one know they have done the slices fine enough (without overdoing it)?
Mike

Oz,
How do you get the glass body off of the buck? And cut the hood and trunk?
Do you build separate trunk and hood lids?
(sorry for all the questions, hope I am not burdening you!)
Mike

I'll follow typical process for mold
just google "how to make fiberglass molds"
e.g. this one
I've got mainly two alternative for doors, trunk and hood
* Carbonfiber as bodyshell
* Aluminum
Just read previous pages of this tread

G'day Mike,
It's very simple task to create sections (every 200mm) from sub-polygon mesh (then using 2D NURBS curves to refine sections) using ordinary CAD application since DXF (Data eXchange Format) format more or less capable to carry basic 2D/3D line, polyline and sub-polygon mesh data.
Regards,
Ozgur @ Istanbul
