Custom Porsche 914 Dashboard CAD Design

Title:
Porsche 914 Dashboard Faceplate – 2D CAD Design for Laser Cutting (SendCutSend)

⸻

Description:

I’m looking for a CAD designer to create a precise 2D cut file for a custom dashboard faceplate for a vintage Porsche 914.

This is a functional, motorsport-inspired interior upgrade — accuracy matters more than artistic interpretation.

⸻
Scope of Work

* Create a 2D CAD file (DXF + SVG) for a dashboard faceplate
* Designed for laser cutting via SendCutSend
* Panel will be cut from 2mm or 3mm aluminum (black anodized or raw)

⸻
Requirements

* Fit within existing Porsche 914 dash opening (I will provide measurements + photos)
* Include:
* 3 gauge cutouts (aligned correctly — not centered incorrectly)
* 4 toggle switch holes (Watson GT3 style switches)
* Mounting holes (to be confirmed based on layout)
* Clean, symmetrical layout with slight driver bias (if appropriate)

⸻
Deliverables

* DXF file (primary for SendCutSend)
* SVG file (for preview/print test)
* Optional: simple dimensioned PDF for verification

⸻
Design Constraints

* This is a flat panel (no 3D curvature)
* Must account for:
* Proper spacing between gauges and switches
* Edge margins for structural integrity
* Corner radius compatible with laser cutting (recommendation welcome)
* Gauges should sit slightly higher so only ~1.5” overlap with the faceplate

⸻
What I Will Provide

* Photos of current dashboard
* Measurements (overall width, gauge spacing, etc.)
* Reference image of desired layout (very close to final direction)
* Switch specifications (Watson GT3 modular toggles)

⸻
Ideal Candidate

* Experience with automotive panels, enclosures, or fabrication files
* Familiar with SendCutSend guidelines
* Strong attention to dimensional accuracy (this is NOT conceptual work)

⸻

Timeline

* First draft: 24–48 hours
* Final file: within 2–3 revisions
Notes

* I will print and test fit before final cut — expect 1–2 quick adjustment rounds
* Preference for simple, purposeful, race-inspired layout (not overly styled)
