The 2 Stroke spares stock is down to its last 2 of these cups. Had a bit of a run lately on these.
Does anyone know of a company that can press these out ? I can get them machined up from alloy or even made in a 3D printer.
Thanks

hi, it need a press tool made then you can make them on a press or a fly press

Who owns and where is the die set that was used to make these samples?

hi i was thinking you maybe able to get a metal spinners to make them ?

Hi, It can't be that hard to make a tool to press them out. I made a tool to press the badge bezels out, it is in brass , so a bit easier pressure wise but I'd had no previous experience of making one. Also made the die for making the plastic suspension tops a few years ago, again no previous experience but got there in the end. Brian H.

Thanks for your suggestions but the price of making a tool and then making the parts is too expensive for the small number sold each year.
So, Ive had a go at 3D printing some prototypes. Not for the purist but they are very strong and work well. Ok they need a paint, but other than that they do the job.

You are getting pretty handy with 3D printing.

Those seat cups look really good.

Thanks Julian, They will be at the Rally on SATURDAY ONLY!
If your there on Saturday, pop in and see me. Im in the Blue Renault Master 2 Stroke sales centre
