First time I try to add an image, hope it works.
The first photo is from an altimeter from a Dutch Buffalo, I found it it in the USA some time ago. The other showes my own project.

Where did you get the seat from? Or did you fabricate it yourself?

Alan: Better way to handle the drawing is to put them on the computer in something like Pro-E, Mechanical Desktop or Solid Works. There, you can check entire assemblies for mis-allignment, dimensional problems and outright drawing errors. It's a darn sight cheaper and lest frustrating to find the error in the computer than in the last bit of assembly work.

With a little practice, you can develope a single part in 3D with any of those drawing packages fairly quickly. One of the great side advantages is that any machined parts that you develope can be exported to a CAM program and then handed over to the machine shop for CNC fabbing.

Thanks CV. You just described the set up at the Ezell's. I understand the process, just not the intracies. I also don't know the program they use, but have been sitting with Ashley watching him work a specific part, using the program. Mathieu, great start!

@Gerrit,

Indeed, this it the forum I was referring to. But when you try the link you gave it reads: error, page not found.
