During my visit to the Gaylord Texan today for the Design 2 Part Show that comes to town once a year, I met a lot of great companies that make awesome machines and parts, CNC machines and plastic molding and parts, springs, and so on.? I visit the Design 2 Part show once a year when they come to town.?
Since I was a child, I was always fascinated with machinery and the nuts and bolts that put them together.? Hardware stores were my favorite places to visit when I was little.? Now, they have this gigantic show every year, I wouldn't miss it for anything.?
So, last year when I was at the show, one of the vendors at the show gave me a blue flat plate with fine cuts all over it.? He told me that these are the things they do.? I was so fascinated by it, the gentleman gave it to me and it was his last piece.? "Oh wow!"? I was so excited.? I?took it and put it in my office.? The funny thing is, every time some one comes to my office, they would ask me what is that.? I?told them that it's a metal plate that turns into a car.? They would go, "Wow!"? Some would ask me why I didn't fold it up and make it into the car. Some would ask me not to touch it, but to leave it flat the way it is.? One time I took that blue flat plate out of the plastic bag and started to bend a section, which is the wheel, and I quickly put it back to the way it was.? It was so beautiful there in my office just the way it is.? I didn't want to mess it up. ?
Today, at the show, as I was walking around, I was looking for the people who gave me that beautiful blue plate.? Several guys told me that must be theirs because they make things like that.? Everyone is so nice at the show.? I was so lucky to have seen so many people in the field where my passion resides.? And just when I was about to leave, I came to one last table and there, I saw the picture of a blue car on the banner!!? That's it!? That's my car!? While telling the guy the story, he looked at me and said, "Yes!? I remember you!? Yes, that was my last one!"? He was so nice and asked for my business card and so he can send me another one.? He said he has them in his office.?
Yes!? I love that car!? See this picture below for that blue car on the upper right hand side of the banner.? Now that I can see the shape of it, I can understand more why I love it.? It is a Formula One car in a blue shine metal.? I?love Formula One car race since the 70s.
The name of the company is called KEMAC Technology, Inc.? Check it out.

This is an animation of how they made this blue plate that ultimately turns into the Formula One car.
