Library of DFX chassis files?
« on: August 25, 2021, 06:21:38 pm »
Hi All,  I'm setting-up my winter projects and wanted to know if anyone has ever cataloged DXF or other CAD files for machining chassis components.  I roll my own using the eMachine Shop EMS format and then rent their DXF conversion utility to make them readable for a local CNC laser-cutting shop.  I enjoy it, but it can get really tedious -- especially when you need to go back to the drawing board for transformer bolt spacing.  I've attached both a recent DXF file and a 3D rendering so you'll know what I'm talking about.  The CAD picture is a rendering pasted in MS Paint since the format can't be opened unless you have the right software.  I have dozens of them -- some usable, some not -- and would be glad to download them to a sticky.  They are all homebrews though and not official or even necessarily correct.   

I can't speak to other CAD formats.  They are certainly out there.  But it would be nice to tap into a spec-ed Marshall JTM45 layout. 

FWIW, Skip
