C-101plowerpower 1,605 #1 Posted December 9, 2017 i've seen some fire pits for sale at a tractor show last summer and thought hey i can make that too. so today i fired solidworks back up, had to get used to it again since i haven't used it in a while and was a tad rusty. but now 3 hours later i've got results! BEHOLD THE WHEEL HORSE FIRE PIT! this was the first rendering i did, look good but it didn't quite fit the look i was going for second one, better in blackish, still not completely right and the third at last, really happy with this one, now to find out how much it would cost and if a plasma cutter can do the details(i can have it cnc plasma cut at my saturday job) if nothing else i'd have it laser cut somewhere tadaaaa i also made some blank sides so i can put other logo's on it if need be(might start selling them if they're cheapish enough to produce) Koen 1 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarge 3,462 #10 Posted December 10, 2017 That would be pretty cool to build if you can get a cutter to do the detail into the plate steel . That would work for other things as well - nice job on the layout work , looks great . Sarge 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
