CNC help required for final year Uni project
#10
(18-10-14, 01:38 AM)His Dudeness link Wrote:You could draw it in sections using solidworks and then rapid prototype each section to give you a mould or draw it and build a basic mould from wood based on the drawing. I guessing you have to do some design, calculating and testing not just build it? If so time is going to be your biggest problem so keep the building side of it as simple as possible and do as much of the work in house as you can.

That's the plan, Dudeness. Problem is that the CNC machines at Uni have a max bed size of 250mm by 500mm - and I still need to clamp the block to that, so that works out a bit useless for us! As the wings will be huge moulds, we can't monopolise the CNC machines for a week, then spend ages playing jigsaws with the bits. If possible, we'd like to do it in one hit.
