Oct 21th to 24th 2008 TECHNICAL FAIR STOCHOLM

For the second year in a row did the new dragbike attract visitors to IronCAD/Solidmakarna´s display at 2008 Technical Fair in Älvsjö (Stockholm) Sweden. The new dragbike is designed in IronCAD 3D and as Charley Karling says “It had been impossible to get a bike like this together without IronCAD. And now when the bike is built we have a product not just a one-off dragbike.”

This years show had over 22000 visitors during 4 days. Solidmakarna did feel a very
good response at the show and the bike really did show what can be done with a good easy to use 3D program. In matter of fact Charley who have been doing the designwork did learn IronCAD the same year the bike project started.
