CNN —
What started out as a simple game between a father and son turned into a Christmas surprise of a lifetime from Italian supercar maker Lamborghini for a family from Erie, Colorado.
Sterling Backus, 54, and his 12-year-old son Xander were playing the racing simulation video game “Forza Horizon 3” one day when Xander asked his father if they could build their favorite car: a Lamborghini Aventador.
Backus, who is a physicist at Thorlabs, told CNN that he “has always been a Lamborghini guy” and that he did not hesitate when his son asked.
Sterling Backus and his son Xander used a desktop 3D printer for most of the parts.
Automobili LamborghiniThe two started planning out their ambitious project in February 2018, and it resulted in a surprise call two months ago from Katia Bassi, who is the chief marketing officer of Automobili Lamborghini.
“I was shaking in my boots since it was like getting a call from the Pope and he is coming to dinner,” Backus told CNN. “Of course, a metaphor, but just to give (you) the idea of the gravity to me, personally.”
Bassi told Backus that the company wanted to shoot a holiday commercial with his family. In addition, they were going to loan them a real Lamborghini Aventador S for two weeks.
Last year, 649 Lamborghini Aventador units sold last year, according to the carmaker. The Aventador S Roadster loaned to the Backus family is priced at approximately $460,247.
Backus said that he drove the Aventador every day and that “their amazing generosity will never be forgotten.”
Sterling and Xander Backus have been working on this project for nearly two years.
Automobili LamborghiniWhile Lamborghini is against the counterfeiting of its cars, the Backus’ project is a tribute car for a STEM (Science, technology, engineering and mathematics) project that is not marked as a Lamborghini and is not being sold as such, which is why Sterling believes the company was OK with their project.
Backus used a toy model that he enlarged in 3D-drafting software Solidworks to help 3D print many of the parts used in their project car.
Using desktop 3D printers such as a QIDI X Pro, they were able to 3D-print many of the parts used in the car. But Sterling said that nearly every part of this project has been challenging for the father-son team.
Backus believes the project will be complete in August.
Sterling BackusAn actual Lamborghini Aventador costs nearly $500,000.
Sterling BackusTo date, Backus has spent approximately $23,000 on this project, and they are targeting August for a local big car show to unveil the finished project.
“The experience showed me how many people out there are just good folks, and it was oozing Christmas spirit,” Backus said. “We will never forget what gifts we were given, and the majority was friendship!”

Lamborghini for Christmas, or How a 3D printed replica turned into a real hypercar
You are here
Home
After the twelfth strike of the clock, only fabulous carriages turn into a pumpkin, but in real life everything happens exactly the opposite. We tell how a 3D printed replica of a hypercar in the garage of an American craftsman and part-time loving father turned into a real Lamborghini Aventador. nine0005
This fairy tale has come true in Colorado, where a local named Sterling Backus has been working on a replica of one of the coolest hypercars in the Lamborghini lineup for a couple of years. His son Zander is to blame for everything - a typical boy who loves computer games with rides on racing cars. A real sports car worth $400,000 or more is an expensive toy even for a well-paid laser physicist like Sterling Backus, but the boy was confident that his dad could build the car himself. Dad didn't laugh it off and got down to business, quickly becoming a local celebrity. nine0005
The car, of course, cannot become an exact copy of the original, but it may well grow to a full-fledged sports car. The chassis is almost ready, the car is already on the move (see video): the replica is being built on a chassis with a steel frame, a transmission unit from a Porsche 911 and an eight-cylinder V-twin engine from a 2003 Chevrolet Corvette. This, of course, is not seven hundred and fifty horses, like the original, but even the power cut by half is a serious matter. nine0005
Meanwhile, Sterling is working on the bodywork and trim. This is where 3D printing technology came to the rescue, but not only. The body parts are produced using hybrid technology: first, a PLA base is printed, and then a durable carbon fiber coating is applied. For the sake of the experiment, Sterling withstood several samples of such parts under the scorching sun for six months, remaining satisfied with the results.
For the manufacture of unloaded parts, the designer considers it sufficient to use non-reinforced plastics, printed and sheet. For example, the headlight reflector and turn signal housings are printed from ABS and ASA, while the headlight lenses are made from clear PETG. Sterling prints mainly on Chinese "drygostov" - Creality CR-10S and CR-105S FDM 3D printers. In some cases, it is necessary to use stronger materials, such as carbon-filled nylon. This is where another desktop additive system comes to the rescue - a dual-extruder 3D printer with a closed chamber Qidi Tech X-Pro. nine0005
Sterling has already managed to use up over 220 spools of filament, fifty of them went to marriage, but there's nothing to be done - they learn from mistakes. Sterling buys some of the components online, some of which are original Lamborghini parts, if they are not very expensive. So far, about $20,000 has been spent on the project.
The story took an unexpected turn the other day when Sterling was approached by Lamborghini with an offer he couldn't refuse. The company offered to play a prank on his son, quietly, under the cover of night, replacing a 3D-printed car with a real Lamborghini Aventador. The offer was accepted. nine0005
Alas, the holiday will not last long: the Italians were greedy and did not give the cherished hypercar to the craftsmen. The car was borrowed for only a couple of weeks, but at least the father and son will be able to drive around and study the original, and this is already a considerable help in the implementation of their own project.
