I found a picture similar to this on the internet and thought it would be fun to try and draw the bowling pin in inventor. I drew this by making a plane at each of the dimensions that are going accross and making a different sized circle, then I lofted all of the circles together. I wish I could figure out how to dimension how high up from the bottom each measurment is.
Since the last post of my go kart I have added a steering wheel and back axle along with the two plates. The back plate is what I will mount the engine on and the front plate is so your feet don't go through the ground.
This is a generic seat I made just for the drawing. For my actual go kart I will try to find a seat about this size and put it on to the go kart.
This is another part of the steering system that will connect the spindle to the steering wheel. The top right hole will be welded to the rod comming off of the steering wheel, so when you turn the wheel it will push and pull the rods to turn the spindles, in turn turning the wheels.
This is the spindle, the wheel connects to the screw that is going out to the left. This will connect to the steering wheel with a couple of other rods to steer my go kart.
For the past week or so I have been working on this design for my senior project. Most of the time has been spent on trying to get an accurate picture of the steering system that I will use.
