Hi all, I’m a teacher of engineering but on the side I build movie cars. I’m on my second DeLorean and will be tackling an Ecto and Batmobile soon. I do all my designing on Shapr. I teach solidworks, but find this so user friendly!

The faceplates are aluminium, but the other enclosures are printed using PETG, sanded, primed and painted
