Interesting Article about the process of making Durrani Rims

    So I work at a steel foundry and we get a magazine called "Modern Casting". It's just a basic industry magazine that highlights interesting things that other ferrous and non ferrous foundries are doing domestically and abroad. I saw this article about motorcycle rims and laughed when I saw who the company was who hired this foundry to engineer the rims. I thought of the Durrani rims thread and thought people might like to check this out. Unfortunately it does not give a release date...

    The quality of the scan is shitty at best...this is a 40 year old foundry so the scanner is not the most technologically advanced piece of kit ever invented; sorry about that.

    Fixed....thanks.

    Cliff's notes version:

    design.....fail

    design.....fail

    design.....fail

    design.....fail

    design.....fail

    design.....success (manufacturing the rims...not success in bringing them to market)

    No, that guy is Vince.
    I think this guy is from an Australian kids show.
    Can't remember the name, kids are older now.
