can anyone make me a file? 3d file

[Ian ParkinParticipant @ianparkin39383]

I need a file to make a battery box cover for a motorcycle

can anyone oblige (its a paying job)

what do you need from me? an accurate dimensioned photo? or a drawing?

Hi Ian,  I assume that you need a 3D file in a format for 3D printing?  It’s the sort of thing I do fairly frequently and as long as there is no screaming urgency I’d be happy to help out.

In terms of what’s required. a full set of orthogonal photo views of the cover preferably taken from around 5ft away to reduce parallax errors.  Dimensioned sketches, major dimensions but also some detail, for example the depths of those recesses, presumably over the battery posts.

DM me your email address if you are interested

Regards,

Depending on what its for Burlen Fuel Systems used to do them.

Ian,  this is likely to be an iterative process with several printed protypes required before a satisfactory item is produced.  Best would be to let the designer have the old cover but, clearly, there is a risk in that if postal services are involved but other wise as detailed a sketch as can be managed, including various radii for the corners etc. Details of the base to which the cover is attached would also be useful to get the various clips correct.

Where do you live?  Also, in what material would the final cover be produced.

It’s the sort of thing I’d be happy to have a go at.

Good luck with your quest.
