How do you become the ONLY person on the planet licensed to make replicas of the original Batmobile? Mark Racop of Indiana has now been building $300,000 Batmobiles that are fully-functioning works of art that take two years to build! Each car requires a mix of engineering, creativity, and so many skilled trades.
Each part requires custom fabrication, with a mix of fiberglass, 3D printing, and CNC manufacturing. Come along with me to see what it takes to build amazing 1966 replica Batmobiles that, yes, even shoot out flames from the back. Love it.
I also partnered with Ivy Tech and their skilled trades department to show how you can take the next steps to learn how to build whatever your imagination leads you next! Connect with Ivy Tech and their amazing programs that fit your schedule and budget. So many opportunities to get the career you want! ‪@ivytech‬
