My friend has a Nitro Top Fuel Harley drag bike. This thing is a 150 cu.in. 800 hp blown bike. Every now and then I get to work on it. The engine cases cost about $3500- $4000. One side needed a clearance slot machined in it. Challenge was to fixture it in place on the rotary table. It was a good exercise for my students to come up with a way to hold it. Pictures show the method...... Payment is before school is out the entire bike and race team will visit the school. Sweet!!!! This shows real life examples of what can be done with machining skills.
