The Ferrari 250 GTO piece that I have decided to craft is the left rear panel. The rear panel is a difficult piece as it has many challenging curves. The first thing we needed to do as a group was to use the program 'Slicer' to scale down the 3D model and divide it into a waffle template. Then we laser cutted the model into 6mm MDF, which became a sturdy model.
Assembling the laser cut waffle.
Taped over the model for better sight of curvature and detail.
3D printed model to compare detail.
Mould the shape with the waffle template and draw a circular template.
Make more adjustments to curvature with drawn line templates.
Using the line template to craft the piece.
Reference the model to see what the shape needs.
Rear needed a template and shrinking.
Made template from the waffle template.
Mould and shrink the shape.
Shape sits nicely on the template.
Bend the top metal to slide under partners piece.
Fits nicely on template.
Check the measurements with partner.
Finish up with a sand and polish.
Final
