Hey everyone! I’m an alum of Cranfield University where I dived deep into Supply Chain Management. But here’s the twist – I’ve got this soft spot for cars and aerospace. Weird combo, right? Well, it’s exactly this mix that sparked something pretty neat. After playing around with a ton of smoke types and exhaust fans, and sweating the small stuff in between, I’ve finally got my demo off the ground. It’s a desktop wind tunnel for diecast cars. Pretty nifty, huh? I’m thinking it could really add some zing to our collections. I’d love to get your take on this. Ever seen anything like it? Or maybe tried your hand at something similar? I’ll be sharing more about my plans over in Diecast Corner soon, and I’m all for digging into this garage talk together. Guess posting in Diecast Corner is the way to go, right? Thanks a ton for letting me share. Can’t wait to hear what you think! 20240313-001.mp4

XCOR's "Trunnel" , wherein they mount a craft to the back of this truck and speed down a runway at 100 MPH. Rather than using a stationary model in a wind tunnel chamber, I guess. https://jalopnik.com/the-ford-f-250-trunnel-is-for-those-who-want-to-do-aero-1842492987 While completely unnecessary, I kind of wish they'd used the original rear quarter panels to finish the sides for a neater appearance. ? Overall this kind of looks like how a Bonneville LSR made from an F-250 might look. ?
