Body work is drafted by a design student who is friend of ours and rest of the drawing is made by us.
Batman sticker was one of those "4 a.m.-ideas". Unfortunately our team manager is too greedy when it comes to sponsor/money-business and he ripped it off.

I think the person who originally asked the question about body work meant who does the physical bodywork?

Cause we don't have any that kind of machinery in our school, mould's moulds (don't know the correct english word for it..) are milled from the igs-file in a company which makes e.g. mould's moulds for fibreglass boats. Then laminating itself is done by us with the help of professional but not in our school's facilities, since we don't have room and equipments in our "laminating room"(truly a corner of a boiler room) for such big objects. Colour-design is made by us but painting itself is made in a car painting company.
Hope this is enough as an answer.

I edited this old Gotland Ring topic to include everything that happens around our website.
Now I've put couple of photos of the becoming car. Some of them are pretty old..
We're little late on the schedule but it's building up.

The car looks amazing. Top notch quality.

Oh, I think the word you're looking for is "buck"

Its what you machine to make a mold from.

sick video!!

[Kimmo Hirvonen]

Buck, OK. Though couple of team mates claim that word I was after is "pattern".
New video material will be available shortly. I will put our last year's "season summary" -video to youtube.

I had to test how youtube works before I'll put the season summary there:

We turned our mag centers a bit lighter and there's some of the remaining chips in fire. The video is also educational. If your mag wheels are caught in fire-> don't put them out with water.

Now I finally got it uploaded. Our last year's "season summary" is available here:

Part1

Part2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inWlML3aY-s

I had to split it cause it was so long.
Poor picture quality takes most of the thrill and somehow in youtube version there's couple of flaws(still moment's eventhough they shouldn't be etc.).
The Offspring-part(2nd song) was first meant to be "Director's Cut" and for Team's eyes only but it somehow leaked here also...
Hope you enjoy it!

First youtube video didn't work for me, second was great though.
