Does anyone have any CAD drawings of a Focus TB or anything else? I get access to a CNC machine for one of my classes and I can make one if I can come up with the drawings.

If you have another part let me know.

thanks!

Come on...LOL...you don't really think someone's going to give you what amounts to the live blueprints to their product, do you?

If you know how to work a CNC machine, you know how to use a caliper and a pencil...measure one yourself, then make one.

Well actually it is realtively common for small manufacturers to give prototype or one off of production prints for a part for testing and manufacturing by a college student with some caviats such as requiring a certain level of Finite Element Analysis, etc.

Uhhh...yeah...well...if that's the case, then a web public web board is not what I would consider to be a very productive place to ask.

Besides, despite what you say, I still kinda doubt they'd give you a CAD/CNC file for a finished product. That would be a pretty retarded thing to do when there are plenty of other things you could work on.

If you get hard up, I'm sure I can get you a file for some kind of car part or another, but most of the stuff I can get is more "2D"...flanges and such that you can probably just draw yourself almost as fast as I could get it to you.

Good luck on your hunt. :)

Do you need a focus one? I think I still have an unknown one I used in my cad class last semester, but it's definitely not a focus TB.

Edit:
I can send you drawings, or the 3-d file(s) (Pro-E/Wildfire 2.0)
Cant do it tonight, I just realized that the University upgraded to Wildfire 3.0, and my license for 2.0 doesn't work anymore. I'm downloading it now.

I have the assembly in a *.pdf file (it's 10 parts; plate, shaft, bolts/nuts), but I dont know where I can host them.

Edit x2:

How's that?
