I am going to be in the machine shop this week making odds and sods for various projects, I will probably have some time between jobs if anyone wants anything simple made (alloy or steel). Oh we have lathes, mills, pillar drills, etc, etc.... we...

Well they sound like nice ideas but something I'd much rather throw on a cnc machine to be honest. I think to make more than one set by hand would be a little silly :lol:

I might have a go some time though...

Cheers

Hi

I am wanting something made out of alloy for a project. Has anyone had this done and could someone recommend somewhere in the UK I might be able to get it made.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Justin.

They were £65 inc post cad design and that's for two sets so not to bad and the quality is very good. Yours look good I just wish I was able to do things like this myself

I am a college employee in NC and we get to take 1 free class a semester. The Dean of engineering thinks I can take the CNC class without the prereqs because of my years with Caterpillar as long as I do it as an audit and not for credit. I am...

Thanks guys for the info. I have a lot to consider before I buy a machine. Hopefully the cnc class this summer will answer a lot of them, particularly do I need a cnc machine. Well I don't need one but I want one. I may find I don't want one after...

So im looking to design up some parts to be machined. What I'm wondering is the things that can and cant be done by typical machining processes, I would think mostly through a CNC or similar machine.
This way I can design a part that is easier to...

I guess I'll have to try out one of the few companies that specialize in prototyping instead of production parts.

This is becoming the whole reason in why I like the Ideas of 3d printing. The only thing that you need to know how to do is create a...

I'm considering machining the edges of my gold and black pan chassis to match the JCONCEPTS motor plate. Just like Kinwald and many of you have done. What tools or dremel bits do you guys use to do it with?

Last post

Sweet, lots of great ways to choose from think I'm going to try the sander and a little elbow grease as well. Thanks guys

I machined a part for my tube frame car project (The goes-way-too-f#$king-fast-mobile) on Halloween, and got the itch to capture the procces in 4K video.

This was all taken with a Moto Z Force in HDR UHD video mode. Not that it really needed it,...

I've tossed this around a few times and done it once before but never took great pictures

with the difficulty of finding 2.25 diff halves, I've turned down GT/B4 (2.6) diff halves, so I tried it again. It's a got a little pucker factor because you...

Machining hardened steel is a serious job. I've tried it with a small degree of success, ruining a few cutting bits along the way. :lol: I'd rather buy the ones on ebay from Dynotech that where on there a few days ago (got a set!) or get some nice...

Hey guys got the lathe fixed and shot some video while I was making some parts for a fellow member. Enjoy the video. You experienced machinists don't bash too hard, I am sensitive 8)

Halgar,

Even though that thing looks crazy, I bet it would actually work ok on some things. I would bet that thing can't drill a straight hole though.

I was kidding, though I know someone that did have one of these things and was able to...
