94 door panel dimensions (1 Viewer)

[MoeGasim]

Anyone have a blueprint for the door panels for 94 hdj80 ....front...rear and hatch. Would appreciate any help.

Thanx

ok...so, as much as i searched couldnt find any 'straight on' image (orthographic) or CAD drawings....so i will start to do one myself.

Took photos with my mobile in high res


Measurements using a straight ruler.

Into 3DS Max.....using lengths and radius intersections

and rectifying the images in ArcGIS (using the intersections as coordinates.

Rectified (orthographic) image

now to ArchiCAD to draw the door, holes and create a draft of the panel itself.

original rear door

rectified rear door

original image in 3264x2448 pix...................rectified image 2k....will be more than enough to create CAD from (hopefully)

 

[MoeGasim]

a quick test from ArchiCAD to 3ds max

and a 'dramatic' shot

You are obviously very talented with a computer.

just trying to make a living .... thanx bro

Those look great! What are they made of and will you sell me a full set?

 

[MoeGasim]

i wish they were made...thats a 3d render of my drawing.....once i confirm they fit i will be posting my CAD file for anyone to use.

Fine CAD work there.

Wonder how they line up with the ones @musthave made.

thanx @retrofive .... not sure i can get that quality work done with the basic tools im using....but i hope to get something done about my panels.

do i sense a job opening ....would be great to get out of this hell hole.

 

[torquedorque]

is yours made the same way as musthave?

 

[MoeGasim]

unfortunately.....mine is just a drawing....and i dont have a CNC machine to make it.....AND...im in Sudan, postal alone would cost more than the panels...so all those added up...it would be better to purchase musthave's ones


but i must say.....my graphics and 3d is shining

 

[MoeGasim]

more CAD....this time i re-drew the dimensions to a more accurate scale....approx 0.05mm...based on the meter and calipers i have

Guess I was saying you could compare drawings.

 

[MoeGasim]

i did ask him if he could share....he agreed....unfortunately, until now, he didnt send the file.....guess he was forced to decline, seeing how well his thread is doing

Any updates? Planning on tackling ABS door cards soon.
What are the chances of you would share your CAD files so this engineering student can make some magic happen?

I don't have the skills to make things like this, so I bought a set from Australia. Wish I had the skills and equipment...

CAD isn't too bad to figure out. It's mostly just drawing lines and shapes, and setting dimensions. I use Autodesk Inventor for most things honestly (even though I have much more advanced CAD programs at my disposal). Once you have a flat 3D part, you can export the face and have a 3rd party company (my go-to is SendCutSend) for laser cutting/waterjet services and they'll basically do all the manual work for you and ship the parts to your door.
Bent parts get a little tricky because your have to edit the file to have bend lines in AutoCAD, not bad once you figure out how to do it.
