Jack H Posted March 18, 2017 #1 Posted March 18, 2017 Hello to all! For my poor English ,the following was translated by software and maybe have some grammar or other mistakes . The plans of L'ARTÉSIEN were purchased from France in last year,the ship is so beautiful and i want to make it(into a ship model) by cnc. First I scan the drawings,then make it into 3d model or 2d Vector graph,Then NC engraving,Including 2D and 3d kits for example frames/figurehead... My project starts from the stem and the main material is pear and jujube... This process is almost all CNC machining, manual only assembly and polishing... some photos of Actually produced... mill on double sides The two faces are basically the same Double sides milling of bow special parts... The following is "no bridges" The previous production was "have bridges" As shown below... pre-assemble... The figurehead ... 3d model Although not very similar, I have tried my best... NC machining programming and simulation Preparation materials It will take some time to process the finished product marktiedens, albert, Erebus and Terror and 27 others 30 Quote

Jack H Posted March 30, 2017 Author #10 Posted March 30, 2017 Thanks attention For the first time, the face of the figurehead is too small .This error is caused by the failure of the Z axis when the milling cutter is broken.

mtaylor Posted April 12, 2017 #17 Posted April 12, 2017 Fascinating to say the least. How long did it that the CNC to make the figurehead?

Jack H Posted April 12, 2017 Author #18 Posted April 12, 2017 Thanks Dan and Mark for your attention. "Fascinating to say the least. How long did it that the CNC to make the figurehead?" Some areas that not carved by maching need secondary processing, it took me total about 18-20 hours to complete a primary processing- 0.8mm millcut/0.05mm stepover. druxey, mtaylor, PeteB and 4 others 7 Quote

Jack H Posted April 24, 2017 Author #20 Posted April 24, 2017 Thanks Jeronimo,and thanks everybody. Maybe I will stop the buildlog for a while,I promised the request of a member to development of a private drawing of the frame and make its sculpture, including the figurehead. This is the last update of the production of the figurehead. After the figurehead is fixed, the support is finally removed. Remove the fixed softener... Finally, It's also need to be manually modified/polished and so on... MEDDO, albert, archjofo and 11 others 14 Quote

Jack H Posted May 24, 2017 Author #22 Posted May 24, 2017 Although some busy, I still took the time to make the fifth figurehead, a little bit of regret is that some of the flaws of wood Cn processing out of the sculpture is quite accurate, basically the same as the design,because it was not polished yet, so looks more rough.

Hubac's Historian Posted July 23, 2017 #23 Posted July 23, 2017 Hi! I am completely fascinated by what you are doing here, and will be following along with great interest. In my opinion, the face of your figurehead - even in its rough, un-pollished state - is an improvement over the original. Jack H, PeteB and mtaylor 3 Quote We are all works in progress, all of the time.
Jack H Posted December 15, 2017 Author #24 Posted December 15, 2017 After an another project, I will write a new processing program and re - engraving the figure-head with V type milling cutter.I also modified two errors and the face （head),more finer engraving results can be obtained by using the V type milling cutter. hexnut, rybakov, JOUFF and 12 others 15 Quote

Erebus and Terror Posted December 16, 2017 #28 Posted December 16, 2017 Very interesting build! Thanks for sharing! Jack H and mtaylor 2 Quote Building Terror Blog
Jack H Posted December 25, 2017 Author #29 Posted December 25, 2017 (edited) Thanks Erebus and Terror Nils Mark Gaetan Bordeleau and Hubac'sHistorian! I finished second steps, because my machine is 4 axis, so many parts need to be engraved again. In general, Maybe i can get better sculpture by using new model new processing program and the V type milling cutter. If the eyeball is to be engraved, 0.1mm V type milling cutter is needed, but I use 0.3mm milling cut now. The rssult of the left arm after additional carving.

Hubac's Historian Posted December 25, 2017 #30 Posted December 25, 2017 (edited) HJX, the milling results are really pretty incredible! Even with just a small amount of handwork, you could finish this carving on a level that most would really labor to achieve by sculpting alone. This is really a fascinating process that you use to make models. I’m glad to see you are still plugging away at it, and I look forward to your progress. Happy Holidays to you and all on MSW!
