The combination of classic architecture, classic cars and people milling around in classic evening wear was terrific. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">H</span><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">ad a quick look at the new station. Magnificent and combining the old with new perfectly.&nbsp;</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">Subsequent to taking on board some gratis champagne, the evening began with fine food and wine and I was lucky enough to be on the same table as&nbsp;racing driver Paddy Hopkirk, Mark Dixon Octane deputy editor, Philip Porter the author, Sophie Kochan&nbsp;and a few other exceptionally pleasant and welcoming people.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">After dinner the awards ceremony began and 3D Engineers was chosen as the winner for the Innovation of the Year category. The worst part of the evening then ensued when the&nbsp;most rubbish&nbsp;public speaker in the World - being me - had to go up and collect the award from Martin Brundle. As opposed to what I was told&nbsp;might happen being a quick turn around essentially being a handover, thank you and goodbye I was asked a few questions by the exceptionally pleasant and disarming Mr Brundle. Goodness knows if my answers made sense as fear was ever present standing up in front of my peers.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0_sDnN1toww/TsSWLHrXqZI/AAAAAAAAAR4/B1N_rsrzZ8Q/s1600/Innovation+of+the+year+award+-+3D+Engineers.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0_sDnN1toww/TsSWLHrXqZI/AAAAAAAAAR4/B1N_rsrzZ8Q/s400/Innovation+of+the+year+award+-+3D+Engineers.jpg" width="278" /></a></div><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">Philip Porter also won an award, so I think&nbsp;I was&nbsp;on the most successful table.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">The highlight of the evening was still to come though and it manifested itself in Sir Stirling Moss winning a lifetime achievement award and having a three way conversation with himself, Tony Brooks and Martin Brundle. This culminated in a line that I am bound to get slightly wrong but in essence was this:</span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">Martin Brundle to Sir Stirling: "Do you think motor racing is still fun"?</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">Sir Stirling "No. When Lewis Hamilton wins a race he has to speak to Vodafone. When I won a race I spoke to gorgeous ladies"!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">Superb!</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-J1czLZGCkEs/TsSV_7V-5aI/AAAAAAAAARw/K7isMlbl6I0/s1600/Bugatti+and+Mercedes+Gullwing+about+to+leave+for+Geneva.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="308" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-J1czLZGCkEs/TsSV_7V-5aI/AAAAAAAAARw/K7isMlbl6I0/s400/Bugatti+and+Mercedes+Gullwing+about+to+leave+for+Geneva.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">There then followed seeing Mark Dixon and Robert Coucher from Octane off in a Bugatti and Mercedes respectively. They were driving them through the night to Geneva. Frankly, the sight and sound&nbsp;of these two cars warming up and then pulling away from the hotel will live with me forever. From the strapping down of the luggage on the bench rear seat of the Mercedes to the warm glow of the Bugatti headlights, the whole scenario was a spine tingling automotive superlative.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

To this end,&nbsp;we contacted The Bugatti Trust, obtained the plan of the item and&nbsp;created it using conventional CAD methods for a total time of 43 minutes including the phone call.&nbsp;</span><br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wtMONjBnAaE/TE_9Q6lRSyI/AAAAAAAAAfs/7lJYktM7RPs/s1600/Manifold+-+Hugh+Conway.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" bx="true" height="242" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wtMONjBnAaE/TE_9Q6lRSyI/AAAAAAAAAfs/7lJYktM7RPs/s400/Manifold+-+Hugh+Conway.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">Bugatti water pump&nbsp;visualization after 43 minutes work</span></td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">From an accuracy point of view, our chosen method was the best as there was no way of knowing how accurate the scanned pump was and therefore&nbsp;going back to the source of the design being the original plans was sensible.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">The&nbsp;example shows one of the reasons why 3D Engineers is so good at what we do.

For nine weeks Stuart lectured one day a week and, with the kind permission of The Bugatti Trust, has taught certain sections of the engineering foundation degree course using copies of the original 1924 Bugatti Type 35 plans. This is a true case of synergy between excellent draftsmanship 85 years ago and high technology today. </span><br /><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">Stuart being one of the highest qualified and experienced Solidworks users in the country has benefited the University greatly and hopefully will lead to further collaborations between <a href="http://www.derby.ac.uk/">Derby University</a>, 3D Engineers and <a href="http://www.bugatti-trust.co.uk/">The Bugatti Trust</a> in the future.</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wtMONjBnAaE/TErncF_C_mI/AAAAAAAAAXo/FIb5tPEWNQw/s1600/Derby+Uni+-+Bugatti++-+CAD.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" hw="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wtMONjBnAaE/TErncF_C_mI/AAAAAAAAAXo/FIb5tPEWNQw/s400/Derby+Uni+-+Bugatti++-+CAD.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">An engineering degree student uses 1925 Bugatti plans to study Computer Aided Design (CAD)</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.3dengineers.co.uk/" title="3D Engineers"><span style="font-family: &quot;Trebuchet MS&quot;, sans-serif;">Visit the 3D Engineers website</span></a></div><br /><span class="st_twitter_large" displaytext="Tweet"></span><span class="st_facebook_large" displaytext="Facebook"></span><span class="st_ybuzz_large" displaytext="Yahoo!
