Check this out! Who can guess what we're making?







I'll post a completed pic tomorrow.

Adapter to fit a round(ish) peg in a square(ish) hole?

No idea but I'm sure it's going to be rad!

It looks like you are making a mess inside that machine. You guys should really stop and clean up a little bit.

Here's the final finished product. This is a custom mounting plate for one of our CDS Supercharger Gear Drives. We built it for Greg at Ultra-Carbon using a C/F "billet" that he supplied. The carbon fiber plate is half the weight of the aluminum piece that's sitting next to it.

I'll try to post a better photo later.



For reference, it's going on one of these.



Here's a fancy photo I took with the CDS logo.

WOW!! Had no idea you could machine carbon like that. Were there any special problems or techniques you had to use?

It's really tough on tooling but other than that nothing we hadn't dealt with in the past.
