Brittle with age and thin design
Designed thicker using Carbon Fibre Nylon
OEM hose still in good condition
Customer states 'Transmission overheats while racing around a track'
I selected a quality transmission cooler large enough to prevent the temperature rising above normal during harsh conditions and made new brackets that allowed for easy mounting.
Prototype testing has shown that PLA+ is not able to withstand the heat put out by the oil cooler causing deformation and reduction in the integrity of the brackets. The use of ePAHT-CF filament was used to print a new set of brackets due to its, tensile strength and higher distortion temperature. Needless to say there were no issues with the transmission overheating or brackets failing.
Customer wanted a holder for their brand of lip balm
Early JK Jeep Wranglers have a design flaw with the accelerator pedal height far lower than the brake pedal and a customer wanted both pedals to be the same height.
Unable to move the pedals, I was tasked to designed a pedal extension that mounts onto the OEM pedal
