ANYONE HAVE ANY COOL 3D FILES TO MAKE PINEWOOD DERBY CARS ON CNC? I HAVE ONE I'M WORKING ON BUT WOULD LOVE TO FIND SOMETHING ELSE LIKE A CORVETTE, VIPER, FARRARI, LAMBO, ...ETC
Just something plain, but fun!
These are not 3D, but they are Vcarve 2D, for use with a 90 degree .5" router bit- good for wedge-type cars. I made the dragon one and filled in the negative space with 2 part resin & it turned out pretty cool. Oh, and don't forget... the speed is in the axle prep!

Oh, and don't forget to let your kid have some of the fun too!!!

My dad used to make some sick derby cars back when I was in the cubs. He makes custom woodwork for a living so he would really get into it. I'll post some pictures if I can find them.

Just havin some fun with home router.
Hey Moog, What software are you using?
That looks pretty cool. I have yet to take that next evolutionary step towards walking fully upright (3D). I'd like to get into it without spending a zillion dollars.
Thanks, Mike

I,m using Part Modeler to design and then use Edgecam to find features and create g code for Mach 3
on my cnc shark router which I built a vacuum table.
THIS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON.
DESIGN IN PROE AND PROGRAMMED IN MASTERCAM.
I'LL POST COMPLETED PICS LATER
I have a few that Ive made over the years... pm me an email address and I will send you a couple if you like. Just let me know what format you would like them in.
