Just thought you all might be interested in seeing this. I made a model of the Torn Fu D2's battery box door on the computer using the CAD program "Solid Works". I then had it printed out in a rapid prototype machine, it is made of plastic.

Now that i do like........... ! 10 outa 10 for effort
If you ever make a spare one........let me know how much ?? i could live witha plastic one till i locate the steel one ...thanks Rich

Thank you, my fiend has already asked if I could print one out for him, but the printer is not mine. It belongs to the school I am attending, as I am studying engineering and computer aided design. I do have the file though if you ever find someone who can print one out for you.

Thanks for reply ... I'll see how i go, as i do have a chance on a battlefield dug one, its a bits Sh*te, but i can live with it, thanks again Rich ...ps keep up the good work, Its nice to see scratch built projects on here

I only made this because I could not find anything else, came out pretty good in the end. I always have some project going on.

If you send me the files I can make them in work for you, my job is a rapid prototype technician. just pm your email address.

I have been interested in making a replica torn Fu D2 Radio set for a while so look forward in making this.

I'd raise interest in 2 pieces
Rebuilding a Torn Eb - but anyway - the accessories box also had a "door"...

To be honest most items on the radio front can be made this way, i can make a small amounts of most items like knobs, door, etc free.

Sorry, I have not been paying attention to this thread, I will PM you my email address.

Sounds very promising

As I said - I'd be vey interested in 2 doors and a set of the knobs. Of course I 'll cover cost for your work and shipping, if you make a reasonable price we get together.

Thanks for a PM if your ok...

I asking if there is anyone with real parts for a Torn Fu D2 radio, like knobs, switchs, small covers anything really that I could borrow to reverse engenner to make copy for people and myself from.

Im based in the UK, all parts will be only ether be laser scanned or meausered with a gauge so no damage at all will to your parts.

thanks for the help

At what position does the latch lock the door, most copys are a solid latch pointing at about 10 oclock. I want to have the latch moving and able to lock and unlock the door.

If anyone has a picture of what the inside of the door looks like please.

Here we go!

Sorry about the deley i've been off work sick, here is the door so far. Will have the other drawings done ASAP and these will be made in Nylon12 when done.

Locks very good so far! Professional work! Looking forward to see more
