Ah sorry yep got one of them end clips ( among several other bits on the drawing board ) was referring to the fuel pull lever, never seen one for a Brumby ...
Edit : I've got the part numbers for those wanting them :
Add : yes you can mirror / reflect & do all manner of things with sketchup - save as .stl file and check for continutiy ( basically means that all faces of object are pointing out, and no holes ) with a program called netfabb. Yet to sort out software for the scanner.
Keep adding more as get them sorted ... ��

>One ute needs four of these, two lefts, two rights as they also plug up the ends of the tailgate trim itself
I don't think that's correct. The tailgate trim end caps are a thinner material than the end caps of the side/corner pieces from memory. I could be wrong though, my side/end caps have been missing for awhile...

huh ...
Sorry Steptoe is on the money : 2 lefty & 2 righty ( still working on them )
Another issue has arisen though, that of copyright.
- Who owns the original ? +Do they still have ownership ?
- What happens ( legally wise ) when I go copying stuff ?
- Can I claim copyleft ? ( if you know what that means )
- What protection do I have from claims against the copy ?
Just a few of them I've come across recently, so not sure how to proceed yet ...
Got any suggestions ?
Ciao, Bantum ...

the copyright act should help you with those questions
http://www.copyright.org.au/acc_prod/AC ... 5f6672fc31
Answering your questions from memory
Subaru ... 90 years (90 years is standard issue from memory)
Royalties royalties royalties if you make copies in the 90 year period
You can but you must pay Royalties royalties royalties
That depends on their corporate lawyers
Get in touch with Subaru and find out about reproduction parts for older cars and what are the legal obligations.

Sorry had to type it in again ( hate this tablet )
Was going to say that it mostly relates to commercial use where you make moneys from it, doesn't say squat about free enterprises where you give away stuff with no copyrights ... ��
So it's a bit of a grey area as far as the law is concerned, it still hasent caught up with the reality of current situation im afraid ... ��
A good example is to try & find details of 'copyleft' ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyleft
Edit : Came back to fix up. Stupid tablet ...

Having given up on the idea of flank badges to read BRUMBY instead of SUBARU being made on a CNC by a signwriter that I no longer acknowledge is alive (think it is mutual ) am discussing idea again with another sign manufacturer who has similar standing with same dude mentioned above. May just get about to having aluminium ones made and may work a deal for a number of 'em They might just be more durable and accessable than 3D printed ones.

I had similar ideas of getting ally ones or similar machined up, all the work is in the designing on the computer though, or cost in paying someone else to design it. I did plenty of 3d CAD at my old job with a really nice (err $20k) program, was a joy to use. Left that behind 6 months ago, have solidworks on my home pc and I absolutely hate it Can't get anything useful out of it.steptoe wrote:Having given up on the idea of flank badges to read BRUMBY instead of SUBARU being made on a CNC by a signwriter that I no longer acknowledge is alive (think it is mutual ) am discussing idea again with another sign manufacturer who has similar standing with same dude mentioned above.

Looks like Bantum has the 3d models pretty down pat, what formats can sketchup export in? Just a matter of e-mailing a file to someone who does custom CNC stuff, if its the right format
Will it ever end!?

Sketchup ...
Yeah - From Sketchup you can export pretty much any file format you want …
If you contact the machine shop & let me know what type of file the machineist needs, then I can upload it ….
Add : The other way to do it would be to get the 'pug' printed in either wax or plastic, then make a sand mould to cast it in aluminium ... ��
Cheers, Bantum …

Yep Steptoe - if you do want to go to the trouble of getting some 'Brumby' badges made up, don't let me stop you. ( I might get pair myself ) Just haven't had the time or finances to do it.
Just remember it's been released on a 'creative commons' licence, so you will need to acknowledge where you got it from & is to be used for personal use only. ( Its not like there's thousands to be made from them ) Same goes for all the other parts that I've uploaded ...

Failed print ...
Also did a trial print of the cancelling sleeve :
Bit of a stuff up with the settings, so will have to print it again...

L series door handle surrounds might be nice. The plastic goes bad after being in the sun too long.
Power window surrounds also go brittle where the screws from behind break.
Might have some spares I can donate for the good of all if you need samples to measure off.

OK, went to thingverse,com on the BRUMBY flank badge hit the doonlood button and got some file 274 kb - that is a bit small, this ain't a file that can be err, sent to a factory in China to reproduce eh ? A mate is working on it, asking me how many, one or two - shipping containers full !Bantum wrote:With the advent of some new 3D printing technology, finally we have been able to re-create all those broken / sun faded plastic parts ...
Well its done, so here are a few to get you started :
• Front Fender ... BRUMBY :
• Tail gate ... SUBARU GL :
• Bonnet ... 4WD :
They can be found here : http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1065522
Haven't got round to printing them yet though ...
Will add more here as they become available ...
( You're welcome to post any that you find )
Ciao, Bantum ...
P.S. - I couldn't find a heading to put this under so an admin/techie may need to create a new section & move this thread later...
Looks like we are gonna start this from basics, pull badge off, measure its dimensions, take pics, change letters to read BRUMBY instead, and choose a decent plastic ....

Door trims ...
Ahh - yes I've been working my way through mostly MY stuff until now, might see what I can do for you when I've finished this lot ...wagonist wrote:L series door handle surrounds might be nice. The plastic goes bad after being in the sun too long.

Commercialisation ...
No, the objects are not that complicated so the .stl files aren't that big really ...steptoe wrote:OK, went to thingiverse, and got some file 274 kb - that is a bit small ...
Probably not what is intended by the licence - if you want to go that route you'll have to negotiate copyrights with Subaru ...steptoe wrote:This ain't a file that can be err, sent to a factory in China to reproduce eh ? ...
[I]Add : Some bedtime reading : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyleft[/I]
Yeah - Like I said, if you want to deal with all the hassles associated with commercialising the stuff, most welcome to try ... Do send me a few samples when you're done ...steptoe wrote: Looks like we are gonna start this from basics, pull badge off, measure its dimensions, take pics, change letters to read BRUMBY instead, and choose a decent plastic ... A mate is working on it, asking me how many, one or two - shipping containers full !...
P.S. - Do note that some of the objects that I've drawn up may not be accurate, as it was mostly done by tracing photos etc. so definitely has a bit of fudge factor in it ...
Only if you're not using the supplied file, doesn't matter how you apply it ...steptoe wrote:Does this change if they are not made by 3D print process ??
Yes it was the intent that you can go to local printer ( or even better if you have your own printer ) & get it made locally ... Only down side is time taken & quality of print ...steptoe wrote:... 3D printing services near you !
Hope that clarifies things for you, as I don't want to be a downer - but that's the deal with most free stuff nowadays ...
Ciao, Bantum ...
No worries about the waiting for L series stuff.
If you're going to get stuff done in China, I travel here often as I'm married to a woman from Shanghai (and am there at the moment enjoying the smog, how I miss Aus sun, clouds and blue sky...).
If you can get packages made to fit as luggage and <23kg, I can usually bring back 1 box.
Not sure how that will go for the next trip next year though as there'll be a very small person in tow which might eat into our allowance.
