Looks great @pieman5 . :cheers: 

That Google Sketchup did you use the free trial for 30 days or are you paying some subscription for it?
Have you tried "Qcad"? 

How do they compare if so? :good:

 

Im a real cheapskate lol so i use the free version to draw it up, then i save it as a transparent PDF file. Can then open it in Inkscape (which is also free) and use a few tools to convert to a DXF. This method only works with 2D drawings though.

 

Not tried Qcad im afraid.

Well I know that already. :lol: Lol.  

I only asked because I still fancy doing that super secret, not so secret bike project. Ha ha. Was going to draw it up, print it off then use that as a template. 

Tbh though I'll most likely just measure and draw everything out by hand straight onto some masking tape stuck onto my carbon fibre as that is what I usually do. If it ain't broke and all that. :good:

Luckily being a cheapskate kinda makes it more fun imo lol. Trying to go fast on a budget rather than just chucking a load of money at something just gives more of a challenge lol. 

 

You mean the super secret bike project that i definitely 100% made sure that i for sure undeniably never ever told anyone ever? 😂 Yeah i still want to work on mine at some point. Might send some drawings and get a few quotes. Making it yourself would be cheaper for sure, but i hate working with carbon lol
