Here are the final 3D designs for the Miura station buck:









All the stations lay out on 13, 4' by 8' plywood sheets. Here's an example:



I'm now investigating the best, cost effective method to have these CNC cut. Once cut, the pieces are suppose to slide together where they are notched. This sounds great in theory, we'll see how well this works in practice.

For some of the body openings, I'm planning to have buck mounted hammer forms for turning the flanges. For example, grill, headlight, and hood vent openings. I'm hoping to have these hammer forms shaped on a CNC router from blocks of glued together MDF. We'll see how practical this is.

More updates to come as I figure this puzzle out
