Designed by computers

The following picture is of the con rod and bracket assembled.
The parts are designed by computer with turbocad design software.
The parts can be assembled "virtually" and it is possible to see where the various parts will fit.
Animation is also possible to check for ram stroke and clearances.
Of course this takes slightly longer than how we used to work with paper drawings, But after the initial outlay in extra hours we end up with a design that we can use time and time again with no extra cost.
Very clever INNIT !!!
