I search for part 6797.dat - Thorsten - 2015-10-12 Hello I hope that anyone of you has imitation the part 6797 for MLCAD. Need it for the McLaren P1 as exhaust. Partname: Technic Engine Air Scoop 4 x 4 x 1 1/3 Can you help me there? Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Philippe Hurbain - 2015-10-12 The shape is fairly simple and easy to create, but do you have other photos from different angles? Measurements? Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Thorsten - 2015-10-12 Yes but it is small Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Gerald Lasser - 2015-10-12 I have this part but I need to look for it (great availability: once in Technic, three times in Belville :-) I upload larger images and dimensions. EDIT: OCt 14th: still looking... not in the technic bin and in the "single parts" bin... Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Gerald Lasser - 2015-10-15 I found it! Was in "Old Gray Stuff" bin... This part is son un-rectangular... - The base is 4 x 4 studs extending by 1mm front and back. - The base tapes from slightly over 4 studs (4stud + 4 LDU) at the Scoop to under 4 studs at the back (1 mm less) - side walls are 1,2 mm, top is 1,8mm, bottom is 1,6 mm - Around the scoop is a lip 1,4 mm wide, .2 mm high - The part height is 13,1 mm at the back and 14 mm at the scoop (including the lip) - Side walls are parallel. - Radius from side to top looks to be 5mm - Radius from the side wall to the back wall looks to be 2mm which also applies for the curve from back wall to the top. Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Philippe Hurbain - 2015-10-15 Do you want to do the model? I can have a shot, but more good photos would really help. Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Thorsten - 2015-10-15 I ordered one.It is still on the way. If it is there I can send you a 2D CAD as an image. I have no idea of it to make it even. so far I only share adapted in length, etc. Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Gerald Lasser - 2015-10-15 Here's a starting point...with the raw dimensions. The rounded stuff is a bit of a challenge, i.e. how to skew a cylinder primitive to fit... Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Magnus Forsberg - 2015-10-15 Interesting challenge. Here's my beginning. Do you want me to continue? Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Gerald Lasser - 2015-10-16 Here are the pictures:                     one more to come Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Gerald Lasser - 2015-10-16 Last one:     Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Thorsten - 2015-10-16 Yes, please. Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Gerald Lasser - 2015-10-17 I need your opinion, according to the measurements I took, I cannot find an existing tori-primitive to fit, however one fits pretty close as you see in the attached file. Would that be a compromise or would a new prim be better? Thanks Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Max Martin Richter - 2015-10-17 Have you tried to use (new) values for the torus? /Max Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Thorsten - 2015-10-18 Let's try to move the Toris from 0.5 to 1 in height and right / left. Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Magnus Forsberg - 2015-10-18 I'm almost dune. Am I reasonably right? Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Magnus Forsberg - 2015-10-18 Done. How do we name it? Scala Wastebin or Technic Engine Air Scoop? Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Gerald Lasser - 2015-10-18 I tried to find one according to my measurements and how I understood their description. I need and outer radius of 12.5 LDU, the torusbody itself has a radius of 5 LDU which gives me an inner radius of 7.5. To choose the proper one I divide the inner radius by the tori (minor) radius, which is (12.5 - 5) / 5 = 7.5 / 5 = 0.66666 ... and now I see that I did a mistake in my calculation before. the t04o6667.dat fits perfectly... Good lesson, also Magnus has already completed it! Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Max Martin Richter - 2015-10-18 Have you tried the programme ToriCalc? You can find it on Philo's homepage. /Max Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Philippe Hurbain - 2015-10-18 Looks good. I tend to prefer Technic Engine Air Scoop as it's the name on BL and Peeron for years... OTOH LEGO names it "REFUSE PAIL FOR LID" Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Thorsten - 2015-10-18 Great job. Thanks for all. Il be happy. And it works. Loock at the Photo Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Philippe Hurbain - 2015-10-18 I can see a corrugated tube that's not well aligned with pin Looks nice otherwise! Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Gerald Lasser - 2015-10-18 I agree with Philo. although only once used in Technic, thrice in Scala :-) Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Thorsten - 2015-10-18 I know. I still have a few kleinne parts that need to be past. I'l be on beginning with stepping and grouping the Parts. Re: I search for part 6797.dat - Magnus Forsberg - 2015-10-18 It's now uploaded to the PT with "Technic Engine Air Scoop 4 x 4 x 1.333" as description.
