Questions
Frequently asked questions
What kind of projects have you solved?
Real scanning, reverse engineering, design and manufacturing jobs: a replicated or modified mirror housing, parts for a motorsport project and a hinged carbon-fibre roof trim for a campervan.
Do you work on discontinued parts or parts with no spare?
Yes. That's the usual starting point: broken parts, with no drawings, no supplier and no spare. We turn them into an accurate 3D model and a manufacturing-ready file.
Are the projects you show real?
Yes. We only show cases with real photos of work done. We don't invent projects or use generic images.
Do you only replicate the part or do you also improve it?
As well as replicating, we optimise: a stronger, lighter or adapted part, with editable CAD and control over the design to replicate or improve in the future.
Can I buy the parts shown in Projects?
We also develop our own projects as bespoke parts. Tell us which part you need to scan, replicate, design or manufacture and we'll tell you how we'd approach it.
