To follow up a bit:
It's been a few months, and I'm just now getting around to replacing my blown motor. I removed all of them from my PVC manifold to inspect and replace the seals with a 1/4"...
I assumed that would be the easiest way, but I was concerned about distortion. Other than scaling x and y, are there any other tips to use on more complex shapes?
I thought about using some type...
What's the easiest way to scan and replicate larger 2D shapes? I'm sure this has been covered before, but I couldn't find anything.
The best current example is I'm making a new headliner for my...
Yeah, but I only need to cover the 4" or so closest to the firewall. It's about 1/16" lower and textured differently. If I can get away with just cutting a piece for that area, it may look like it...
What about ABS?
The dash on my 2005 Mustang has cracked at the corner of the defrost vents on both ends, and the grille part has separated all the way down the back side.
The bad news: It would take a fortnight...
I'm still not sure what happened. They are mounted outside, just on the other side of the wall from my dust collectors. I heard an odd surging noise, and assumed there was something jammed in the...
I know many on here use Lighthouse motors for their vac system, and many have had failures. I have 4 motors mounted outside under a covered area. 2 of them are the primary ones that I use 80% of...
I am interested in trying to create 3D models from photos. At this time, I'm not expecting to end up with a 360 model from a picture. I'd just like to end up with something like a clip art relief....
Have you ever had to deal with a customer who demands that text is written a certain way that includes incorrect grammar? This is a pet peeve of mine, and I see it all the time, especially when it...
Thanks for the ideas, guys. I keep forgetting to snap a pic before I leave the house every day. What I have is just a dual sink vanity. Her side is close to the door in a corner. There is about...
Or any of the great problem solvers here who can relate.
My wife keeps the bathroom vanity covered in small appliances: flat iron, curling iron, blow dryer. These things drive me crazy teetering...
I first experienced a scammer years ago when I was selling some sleigh beds online. It started with a call from a service that deaf people use to communicate over the phone. I didn't even know...
Has anyone ever painted acrylic before final machining to give the piece more of a neon or round bulb sign type of look or something similar when used in combination with the LED strip at the bottom ...
Vinyl backing is a good idea.
I'm learning and making big strides in cutting out projects much faster each time I cut a project, but I don't really see how I can make money cutting 3D projects. I'm really referring to smaller...
I've been using rattle can paint to spray 2D cutouts. It seems to be the best option for my needs. I am concerned, though, about the paint sticking to the cardboard in shipping. We've had a really...
Thanks for the info. I just signed up for a Square account. I guess I'll have to buy a new chip reader soon for $49.
Has anyone ever had a customer ask to give you their card info over the phone? I'm just now getting into accepting credit cards. I had planned to just use PayPal to email invoices until my volume...
That's along the lines of what I was thinking. Setup might take some time, but it seems like it would be worth it if you make a variety of things in various sizes. I'm really just getting started,...
Is to have some sort of projector display a scaled image of the piece to be cut on your table. This would really help when you are trying to strategically place sheet goods. If you have a piece...
That may be exactly what I need. Looks affordable, so long as I don't have to pay a fortune to get it shipped. I don't know of any local places that would have stuff like this.
Has anyone ever...
I'm getting a lot of requests from customers who are interested in these plasma cut metal sheet painted decorative signs, letters, etc. Most don't know the difference in a router and a plasma...
My supply voltage is 245V. I have 230V motors.
