The ring sure did turn out very well. And please tell your wife that my wife adores the ring. As people probably have guessed the ring was done for my wife, I'm the mysterious forum member

Great to hear! I almost PM'd you to ask but :biggrin: no need.
excellent

Well...there might be a few versions, and then some different packages. Also, there will be a service plan and a few items that you don't need but will really be sad without( but I'll tell you that now)...wanna give me $500 for a couple of years? :tongue:
then we'll talk about prices

It's the battery replacement costs that are really scary... ;-)

Beg to differ here (as this is vital to my TCO calculation): :wink:

If a 60kWh battery pack degrades to 70% after x years, it holds the same capacity as a new 42kWh pack, but has higher weight. It should be possible to sell it for nearly the same cost as a 40kWh pack for stationary use, e.g. grid power storage or emergency home power backup. Battery prices drop quite a bit in x years, so your replacement pack capacity is effectively the cost of the 30% degraded capacity (18kWh in this example) at time of replacement. Make sense?

Sorry, I think we were talking about RC cars

Speaking of which... have you come up with a number for the reserve deposit for the Signature series yet, Z?

I've been too busy working OT to try and come up with a chunk for the bigger car. I'll play soon

edit:...now playing in the real thing :tongue:

Lazy request coming up:

Does anyone have just a wireframe of the basic Tesla logo? Kind of like the logo that get's drawn at the start of each of the Tesla videos? If I could be bothered to load Adobe CS5 to my laptop I could do an edge detect on one of the jpegs up-thread, but I've just rebuilt my laptop, so don't want to pollute it again, at least for a while...

My plan is to blow it up to print on an A0 printer, then use it as a template to jigsaw-cut some MDF, then lacquer it with a black enamel, back light it, and have it on the 'feature wall' of my garage (that I'm about to start renovating).

If not, I'll just blow up one of the jpegs and use a bit more black ink, the resolution isn't to important, it would just help a bit with the precision of the cut.

@pete8314 - The SVG doesn't cover your needs?

Not without installing some software, which I can do, I was just hoping for something a little simpler.

I guess I'm unclear on what format you'd like to convert to. My OS-included browsers (IE) renders it just fine.

Thanks, IE rendered it, but not to the scale I needed. No worries though, I pulled it into Adobe CS and now it's all good - thanks

you want to share the file?

I started to, but then couldn't figure out a way to upload a PDF. Am I missing something?

Go tu "reply", then "advanced" on the bottom right

Then under your reply screen will appear "manage attachments" ;-)

Zooming to 1000% (10x) wasn't enough? Anyway, sounds like you're good to go.

Thank you sir, here's the file, it's 48" x 35", though obviously you can scale to whatever you need.

My plan is to use it as a template to cut some board, spray it, the backlight it with LEDs and put it on the garage wall. If it turns out well, photo's will follow, if it doesn't, we'll forget this ever happened
