Hey, I don't know if this is in the right section, or even possible, but I figured I would ask.
I am going to college next year, and I'm going to be attending Worcester Polytech Institute. Which means, I have access to about 13 CNC machines. I'd like to machine my own rims for my Celica. Does anyone here know of a place where I can get wheel blanks, like ready-made rims but nothing cut out of them? Once again, I'm not sure if they even do this outside of the motorcycle realm. But if at all possible, I want to CNC my own rims, for something a little more unique. Thanks guys. Small Edit For Picture: This is a motorcycle rim.

How does Chip Foose do it? That's what I'd look to as a model. You know, if I had the smarts and ability to take on such an endeavor.
 Good luck with it, I think it'll be VERY cool if you're able to do this! This post has been edited by GriffGirl: Jun 11, 2009 - 1:20 PM --------------------  |
