Project SC300 Road Racer: Part 27 – Joining a Wang Gang

  • Erik Jacobs
many sheets of aluminum with shapes cut out and leaning against wall
Nine Lives Racing may have made a few sets of wangs and pylons and things…

 

small aluminum plate being run on routing table, 9 lives racing logo visible and lots of mounting holes
Here Johnny is finishing up the mount that goes underneath the wing by cleaning up the edge.

Johnny does a good job of reminding you whose products are being used!

 

two mounting plates stacked up and sitting on top of aluminum wing body
Here’s the final product – two mounts that will be welded directly to the underside of the airfoil.

 

measuring tape running along wing body with hands marking with a permanent marker
Johnny has a jig that he uses for precisely and accurately welding the mounting tabs to the wing.

The first step is to consult the engineering drawings to determine the placement of the tabs, and then mark the spot for the jig to hold them.

With the mounting tab held in place by the jig, it’s time to melt some metal.

    “But there’s an end to this means, I assure you. And it’s not another innuendo. I don’t think. If you look back to the photo of Rob, he’s taking a photo. In fact, he’s taking dozens of photos. You see, when you take dozens of photos from different angles of the speckled car, you can then use some really fancy computering to stitch all of the photos together to build a really accurate 3D model of the vehicle.”

    Rob is using a regular digital camera and then stitching 2D photos together using software to build the 3D model.
