HIYA ART, Is it me or is the DXF drawing not fully exploded as to all the parts showing seperated ?

I may have to give this a try with a plasma cutter and cut out 1/4 " alum plate (;-)

(;-) TP

Terry:

  All the parts are shown twice..first with all on top of each other in proper placement, and secondly each part is randomly placed by itself around the top of the drawing..
(Or thats how it should show up.. )

Very informative video
Thanks very much

Hi guys:

  Just a note, if anyone needs the drawings in some other format, EPS or whatever, ask here and we'll try to do so,
I use VCarve so the .crv file is there, but some I know may have trouble with DXF's.. so if e can help you out..
feel free to ask.

HIYA Art, I may be blind but I see shapes in the assy that are not shown outside and shapes outside that I don't see in the assy.

Would love to cut it out .

(;-) TP

Terry:

  No, all parts in the consolidated overlay shoudl be shown on the outside. My work flow is that each time I add a piece I add it to the
overlay and leave it on the outside to be cut. I use GT for all the GCode except for the back and small items..but everything should be there..

( Anyone should feel free to yell if they find they need something or are curious as to what I used a piece for..

Hi Guys:

  The download file has been updated with Winder gears, and sections for each part you need to make. Files are now in dxf, eps and AI formats.
Ill leave it to those that need pdf to convert the dxf to pdf themselves as I dont have a pdf converter handy..

Have fun

Hi Art,
Thanks for the youtube video.  Its always great to see how someone else tackles problems that have challenged me on some of my projects.

Its really a sad day when I don't learn a bunch of new stuff.
