Richard Cranium Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Sounds like a guy I know. Mechanical Engineer/machinist. Spent his time before and in college working in a machine shop. So, now he not only can design things, but he can make his own prototypes/parts. He did the head work on my Camaro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limitedslip7 Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Yep, that's pretty much it. I spent the last three years making parts for my car at my co-op job while going to school. Now I can't find a fucking job to save my life... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuicedH22 Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 UC FSAE > OSU FSAE just talkin shit BTW, I also fabricate my own car parts (sheet metal fab, mill, lathe, welding, and waterjet when get access to the machine...) but only when needed, and it isnt easier/cheaper just to buy something already properly designed/constructed....
