Now write the G-Code !

This was the first attempt, I'll be making the sheep larger, and inverted on the next design. Also need to lose some more weight from them

The G codes easy - ask John Kimmins, thats the same as his design

I seriously doubt it!

hmmm gcode, I think I need to find solidcam for that :)

Well all the measurements for that one are based on the mb racing centre, changed for 16 holes which meant 8 cutouts for symmetry. It's different now though, the part round the wheel nut is curved with a larger chamfer towards the centre.

Thank you, the current plan is to get these made at a local machine shop at the moment.

Here's another layout, i need to check all the rim sizes, adjust the centre to suit and make sure the offset is ok and they should be ready to go :)

The diameter of the centre needs to be increased a little, this should then add a bit more beef between the central hole and cutouts

You should have used the CNC Stanley Knife.
