So I just so happen to have a rapid prototyper(3d printer) and CNC.

The same with carbon fiber and plastic vacuum forms and autoclaves.

Anyone have any cad files they want to send me of rare parts?

I have the capability to do custom surface mount PCB. So electronics too.

Nothing can be "mass produced," because that's not the focus of my shop. I work at the REEF advanced engineering research facility for the Air Force Research Laboratory. Actually, you'll be able to see exactly what I do soon on Modern Marvels on the History Channel.

I don't know why it has taken me so long to realize I could can now fab up just about anything I wanted to for the Supra. Meh, probably because I haven't even driven my supra in like 4 years now.

I don't know the exact size of the prototyper but I'm gonna guess max size it can make is around 2ft by 1.5ft by 1.5ft?

The autoclave stuff is fairly large. Not big enough to do a hood or something that big.

I bet if you got some high MCD surface-mount LEDs you could make a pretty sweet and simple LED tail light PCB.

would be really cool to make a fiberglass housing for 2 hella 90mm lenses to mount in the flip up lights @ sleepy-eye height if you know what i mean? like the black plastic housing now but 1/2 the height and molded for 2 round lenses, i think they're like 2" round each or something? that would be awesome!

i'm referring to this one:

if someone made a kit like this i'd pay good money for it.

nosechunks has a valid idea...

keep in mind most things won't sell like hotcakes as the community isn't that large.
