25.01.2022 We're not just all about 3d printing. Sometimes we do things like this. Stainless 4-2-1 heads for a second generation swift. ITBs may be on the menu later.

20.01.2022 Not long now! Still more work to be done, but well worth it.

20.01.2022 I have 2 spare disco 1+2 cointray/ashtray replacement pieces. Top piece is to house 2 12v plugs. They have 25mm holes for housing, but can be taken out to which ever size you need. Bottom piece is a housing for 3 carling switches. Both $50 each including postage.

20.01.2022 Spent some stolen time on the territory gauge holders. Printing off a test piece and we should be just about done!

19.01.2022 I have it made it easier for people to order the common things now. This is through a professional printing service to ensure you get the best quality available. https://www.shapeways.com/shops/custom-car-bits

18.01.2022 I have 2 Disco 1+2 coin/ashtray switch holders ready to go. Just $50 including postage.

18.01.2022 The eyes have finally been printed. Time to clean them up and mount them.

15.01.2022 Thats Zombies snorkel head finished. That has been a long time coming.

14.01.2022 Here we have 2 snorkel heads sitting around waiting to be finished. Skull requires sanding, joining, abit ore resin and paint. The robot head requires paint.

11.01.2022 Remodeled the new skull snorkel head to a decent size.

07.01.2022 Bit of work today on the swift gauge holder. Ready for a fitment test to gauge what angle the gauges need to be on.

05.01.2022 Abit of a throw back Tuesday. Here is a snorkel head that was fitted 2 years ago. It has a new home after the death of the car.

03.01.2022 One switch holder for the discovery 1 and 2. Does not come with switches. $50 posted.

02.01.2022 Here we have it. One test print of a triple 52mm gauge holder for the mid 2000s swift.

02.01.2022 I know its been a long while since ive shown some work. Life gets that way. Have a fair few things on the go at the moment and here are 3 picture worth ones. First photo is the start of a new snorkel head. Still requires further sanding, eyes, lighting (yes, it will light up) and pass through plugs to power gear on the roof. The second photo is of a ZC21/31 triple gauge holder that needs to be test fitted before completing.... The third photo is the mark one roof cage. Its been removed for a complete reworking, all reverse and flood lights replaced, 2 HID spotties replaced, as well as all the wiring redone and the light hoop to be cut off and remade. The antenna are fine. For those interested about the antenna set up, there is a 3DBI and a 6.5DBI. The 6.5DBI is on a pivot mount, which is raised and lowered via a switch in the car. Both antennas run to a switching box in car so i can flick between which antenna is needed for the terrain. Other projects consist of power distribution for the rear of a 4x4, fridge and drawer set up, custom manifold and an intake system. These items just are not for one car, which is why i am keeping busy.

02.01.2022 Yet another snorkel head being designed.

01.01.2022 It's been a long while since the last update. The printer wanted to leave me, but it's fixed now. Here is a test print for a gauge holder for the Ford Territory.
