Manufacturing
Throughout my time on UT Austin's FSAE Electric team, I've learned about the manufacturing process.
Below are images of parts that I've made and assisted with.

ARB Connector
Tapped Plug
Cone Spacer
Of the parts shown, I manufactured everything apart from the bellcranks
(I assisted in running the CNC for these). I machined everything
else using a combination of manual machines. I also heat treated the ARB blade
and staked spherical bearings in the control arms using a hydraulic press.
