Hi Folks,
I was able to make a half model of the Hellcat fuselage by lofting 16 cross section views and one extrusion. So I have a model and now need to make the part - power tools would be the best way - not my strong suit. I can make dimensioned drawings of each cross section if that helps, and can also provide files of the fuselage in the following formats:
step
stl
IGES
sat
parasolid
jt
zpr
It was suggested to make two half models so that each half would have a flat surface for stable machining, gluing the two pieces after constructing them.
I need help in how to proceed, or suggestions on how to make the part. I have attached a picture of the fuselage if that helps to get your brain going. Please let me know what you think.
Dennis
