thanks again pablo
i'm living in a so small country (but very beautiful, have a look: http://www.reunion.fr/)
it means small market
nevertheless, i have the aim to build a little cnc

BEautiful! How long does it take to cut?

i don't have the answer now but will give one later

hi everyone
here are the new objects
thanks

Excelent designs! you should submit them to YankoDesign.com !

Are you using models designed by you or using free models available online? I tried to slice rhino or other surface models in Solidworks and never got the the procedure worked out completely.

thanks pablo
all the models are off course designed by me from scratch, only the rhino and the head was made from 3d reference
if you have a problem in a slice, send me the file, i will have a look

Fabrice can I also send you a file?

yes, of course (use the email in my website)

one more:)

Ok I will take a 4,2 meter one to use it for a Satellite Dish.:D

nice!

One comment, I made many experiments with this method and there is a "problem" when you do designs like the last one, wood thickness needs to be very uniform because you get either sloppy joints or parts are very difficult to insert into each other after you inserted a few.

Do you recall the ball I made? I started assembling from the center, the parts on the outside had to be hammered in place, I used just 0.2 mm over the material thickness for the slots. I tried a little more and the joints weren't as good.

good to remember pablo
the cutting file is perfect but the cnc not (i'm exagerate off course)
the man who use it have to master his cnc

finally you are most serious than a south african boy i know (we know him all):), and he's mastering his mechmate for sure

now in reunion island

Second time this year? Any danger to people or economy?

no danger for people if it stay in the enclosure (and if people don't go too near the lava)
for economy, inconvenience if the lava cross the road

Wow, I hope you stay safe.

3d round table
 

a round table in 3d

thickness 15mm
diameter big circle (under glasses) 1,20m

Cool table but I have a feeling dust bunnies will love to hide in the middle

The leg should be able to store wine bottles - keep the bunnies happy..

Nice design! but I have to disagree with G. here, the kitchen is not the best place to store wine, one liter bottles of beer are OK :)

No it's place for the kids to hide the cabbage that they don't want to eat.:p

Kobus, what are my children doing in your house? ;)

hi everyone
new design

Hi there! You're models are awesome! How do you slice the objects? With a certain function or a plugin? I tried with Split ( from Features in the Insert menu), but haven't received exactly what i wanted - those sliceforms.

thanks
i post a tutorial here: http://www.mechmate.com/forums/attac...9&d=1267851455

Thanks a lot Fabrice!

Sorry for the double post. Could you also recommend a manual or something for a begginer in SW to start with?

to start with solidworks, nothing better than the tutorial included (very complete, it remind me that i must read it whole) and then you can ask me by pm or email

hi everyone

That is very very nice.

Very nice. Is it designed in solidworks or what program are you using.

Wouldn't mind making one myself for my youngest son.
