Re: [Fractint] A concept car design using fractal wheels for suspension

You can find lot of "painted" hubcaps, David. Nothing printed, though. First, I would need a flat or slightly curved, white or shiny hub cap. Then, I would print on clear plastic that shrinks and sticks. Perhaps the plastic for putting a UV filter on windows would work. That would probably melt in most laser printers. With a flat hub cap, I might get away with large-format label-paper.

I wasn't talking about his hubcaps. I read the description of how he would implement the suspension. The suspension itself is based on a fractal tree design, using linked hydraulic segments that could bend (at their joints) and absorb shock using their hydraulic nature. -- David gnome@hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community
