Bitao Posted March 27, 2020 Share #1 Posted March 27, 2020 Five versions of the rectangular positioner have been designed and manufactured; the last one can be used in the plane machining of the milling machine with adjustable angles, especially the slotting of various angles of the Keel, the ribs and the crossbeam. At the same time, it can also be used as a precise positioning of rectangular assembly. The metal material can avoid the overflow of glue which makes the workpiece difficult to separate. The material is high hardness aluminum alloy (6061) and brass (H59) . EricWilliamMarshall, SJSoane, Ainars Apalais and 11 others 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BANYAN Posted March 27, 2020 Share #4 Posted March 27, 2020 A very useful tool; you don't happen to have a local manufacturer that would do these on a 'limited' production run for you do you? Some very clever ideas you have developed in this jig - thanks for sharing. cheers Pat mtaylor 1 Quote If at first you do not suceed, try, and then try again!Current build: HMCSS Victoria (Scratch) Next build: HMAS Vampire (3D printed resin, scratch 1:350) Built: Battle Station (Scratch) and HM Bark Endeavour 1768 (kit 1:64) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to develop and make my own tools. In order to make the model more accurate and efficient,. Of course, it's not for sale. Few people in the country can buy what I make for their own use. After all, I'm a model enthusiast, not a businessman. cog and mtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have developed or copied and improved things without selling a lot of assistive tools. After all, I have been doing this for more than 20 years. I wouldn't go to a manufacturer for these things, because mass produced things aren't guaranteed, and only the designer can understand the parts of the structure that need to be precisely controlled. cog and mtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr PR Posted March 28, 2020 Share #7 Posted March 28, 2020 I think maybe you enjoy building the tools more than the models? That's a clever idea building the caliper into the tool. That is a lot cheaper than some of the digital readouts that are for sale. mtaylor and RichardG 2 Quote Phil Current build: https://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/19611-albatros-by-dr-pr-mantua-scale-140-about-1815/&tab=comments#comment-601276 Previous build: https://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/19321-uss-oklahoma-city-clg-5-1971-3d-cad-model/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
