All Done

 

Concept to design and complete prototype in 12 days.

Sweet! Nice design work, Chuck!

This capstan kit will be an open source project.  I will set it all up and add the downloadable stl files for 3d printing and dfx and pdf files for laser cutting.  
 

This group will have 3 sections…
 

1. I will create a build log of the step by step construction of the capstan.

 

2. I will create a build log of sorts for the laser cutting…materials and techniques. 
 

3.  Lastly a brief chat about the 3d printing…what resin I use …dyeing the pieces…i will provide pre supported stl files as well as those without supports.

 

With these technologies becoming more common,  we should have projects like this one.

 

In addition,  I will look for someone in the UK or Europe who wants to produce this as a kit.  To avoid tariffs and steep shipping.  And also someone in the USA to mfg as a kit…for the same reasons.  This way folks who dont have the equipment may get a chance to buy a kit and build it.  
 

I have no interest in making $$$ on the project so those who want to make this as a kit can have the license to do so free of charge and for life.

 

Maybe Chris W and ScrubbyJoe…

 

We shall see.

 

Its a nice fun little project…no more than two weeks to build once you have the parts.

This looks incredible, having recently acquired a Resin 3d Printer I am looking forward to this.

Can’t wait to print out and cut out all of the required parts and build this little model myself.

What a wonderful work! I like to buy this!

[Thukydides]

This is a very cool project.
