Need some help with Weiland 6-71 Supercharger measurements!

Post by themanw/oaname »

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to dust off the rust from my 3d drafting skills. I work with AutoCAD and proprietary software for building houses, but I LOVE working with Solidworks and I dont want to lose any of those skills I have with the software and I want to get more familiar with the new features of Solidworks 2013. I believe a really challenging project would be perfect for doing that.

I was wondering if anyone floating around here would be willing to share some measurements of their Weiland Superchargers with me so I can give 3d modeling it a shot. 3D designing a motor would be the most challenging thing I'll have ever done. I will have updated screen caps of each of my models to show the help isnt going unused or appreciated and maybe some incentive to see where it's going.

My goal is to have it 3d modeled in separate pieces with the fasteners to put it together, using photos for reference and scaling to make it all work together.

So; here's the first photo of what I believe I will need in order to do (it's a front and side view):

And here's an example of something I've modeled that's related to Mad Max using measurements a seller on ebay was kind to share with me, the Hydrant Spanner:

Thank you all in advance for your help!
