OK. I was wondering why for a model of such quality parts would have been made from plastics. This makes sense.

 

CNC-milling or 3D-printing in wax opens up very interesting possibilities for lost wax casting or making masters ... if you have access to the technologies ...

Of course. Times are changing, changing tools and technologies. It needs more specific knowledge and experience.
3d printor has a much greater capacity than the Range 3D engraving milling machine. However, this is only for wax models (lost-wax casting only)

Hi Alex

Enjoying the build log with your beautiful work and generous sharing of your techniques very much. I like the very compact CNC router in your post no #80 - did you build that yourself or is it a commercial product? if commercial could you give us some details where you got it please. Cheers Pete

Алексей приветствую! Получилось зарегистрироваться, только не могу фото на аватар прикрепить в личных настройках! Спасибо, попробую разобраться позже пока с удовольствием посмотрю! :D

Ура получилось с фото! На руках БельПуль нашего мастера с Новосибирска - Александра Николаевича он чуть за мной стоит!

Hi Pete
I'm sorry, that did not respond in time ...
So, this engraving milling machine was built on an individual project for me. It is not produced in firms and factories. Compared with industrial machine tools, my machine has many advantages. Machining accuracy is much higher margin of safety stock has tripled compared with the same industrial machines.
However, the component parts (screws, guides, motors), all made in China.
The machine has a powerful monolithic structure of metal 20 mm. The machine is heavy and steady.

Alex welcome! It has turned up, but I can not attach a photo on the avatar for personal settings! Thanks, I'll try to figure out until later look with pleasure! : D
Cheers turned to the photo! In the hands of our master BelPul to Novosibirsk - Alexander Nikolayevich it just behind me!

Hi Alex, the level of work in the preparation for the lost wax is very nice. Your computer rendering skills leave me in awe. When I look at the machine work that goes into the wood panels I cannot help but think of the watchmakers who build amazing watches. The level of work in the finishing of the wood with small rotary cutters speaks volumes about the quality of your tooling and your mastery of them. I am enjoying watching your ship evolve.

Looking at the wax masters reminds me that there are so many different ways to accomplish the same result. Some requiring complex machinery and even more complex computer programs and knowing how to use them, others requiring thinking outside the box and seeing a wood or plastic bead in the craft bin that is the right size next to the tiny pins in a packet of 500 and the plastic or brass sheet to cut the blades from.

And then the old fashioned methods of shaping round stock on a lathe and silver soldering shaped brass blades into milled slots.

 

So much to learn so little time to absorb it all. Again beautiful work Alex.
