You can see them here:
Shuttle Car Coal Hauler
That's just one model, we also have one that's run off a turbocharged cummins which is kinda bad ass
Solid edge takes a little bit to load a 3D model with over 2000 parts. Even on our super computers. As they call them haha
Weird thing is, Phillips (like TV's, light bulbs, and all that junk) is owned by the same guys, so we get our computers from there, they have some CRAZY computers, but we don't even get the best ****

I refuse to work with 3D CAD haha, **** sucks IMO
SolidWOrks and Inventor are my two favorite systems.

Im so sick of using CAD...All day long I use it, its so boring to me. I guess if I got to do better things other than HVAC systems and roofing it would be cool...
But Ive been promoted to a Project Manager as of next Monday! So hello a bunch of more bs added to my already full plate lol
You guys ever use STAAD? I have to learn it and teach it to a Structural Analysis course next month...

There are Eaton places everywhere, there's one just a few miles down the road from my house. My next door neighbor works for Eaton.
BTW, according to this no superchargers are made there. http://www.eaton.com/ecm/idcplg?IdcS...ILE&dID=223890

Nice, I use SolidWorks and Autocad 2011 at work, and I used SolidWorks, ProE and AutoCAD in school
All of them are pretty good programs, but I like Solid Works the best.
Yeah that's the bad thing about our job. **** gets boring fast 
and No sir I can't say i've ever used STAAD, it nice?
