Hump Day Cool Finger: Oakley C Six Carbon Fiber Sunglasses
Machining a solid block of carbon fiber may not be the best way to use the material from an engineering standpoint but cutting across the fibers is what lends Oakley’s flagship C SIX its unique look. B efore reading further, read this . The extremely well crafted, but information deficient text that you just read was the Oakley company’s cool way of introducing their new carbon fiber sunglasses, which after much anticipation finally became available two days ago. Aptly, they’re callin

Create Dovetail Mortise And Tenons In Timbers
You can chisel out mortise and tenon joints in timbers by hand, program a CNC milling machine for the task, or you can use LignaTool’s router system. Their system lets you create dovetail mortise and tenons for connecting timber without fasteners. The system is comprised of a mortise template and a tenon template. Both have sliding fences built in for quick setup. With the LignaTools templates you can make mortises and tenons in wood cross sections from 3″ by 3″ to 8″ by 15″ — plus you can v
The Development Of Computer Numerically Controlled Machine Tools
The history of Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machining begins with the early numerically controlled machines, which were servomotor controlled tools that were able to machine precise shapes.NC machines had instructions fed into them in the form of punch tapes or punch cards carrying a series of points through which the controls would move, with the result that objects could be machined with more precision than when the machines were operated by hand. Production of these input media initi
Quiet Air Compressor? I Could Use One!
I run a coolant mister on one of my benchtop CNC mills. The mister provides cooling to the toolbit as well as clearing the chips away from the cut, reducing the chance of the bit jamming (I use small end mills) in deeper cuts. The problem is, I have an old horizontal air compressor in my attached shop supplying the air. When the thing kicks in (usually every 15 minutes or so for at least 5 minutes, and programs typically run a half hour to an hour) the noise is deafening, even in the house. So I

The tapes or cards carried a series of points through which the controls would move, with the result that shapes could be machined with more precision than when the machines were operated by hand.At first the geometric calculations to generate the points required to generate different shapes had to b
Halloween Hanging Mobile Project
The Halloween Hanging Mobile Project was lots of fun. Hand drawn images were cut out using a Fireball V90 CNC machine as pieces of the spooky mobile. You can see more details of the V90 CNC machine here . Here are the basic steps of what was done: Drawings were made on sheets of paper The drawings were scanned into the computer and touched up using MS Paint Artcam was used to convert the bitmap images into vectors The vectors were used to create tool-paths so that the images
The Fall 2009 Roundup: Überclocker Updates, RazEr Redux, Analog Antics, and the End of the Tragedy of the LOLrioKart
…wins for the longest post title EVER on this site. That’s because it addresses quite a few topics. I can finally characterize the academic term so far as having entered a steady state, which just means I know which nights I can bumble away safely, so it’s time to step up work on the projects. I’ve devised a list of theoretically attainable goals for the next few months, stretching into the coming winter months. Überclocker Remix Let’s start with some pictures of epic motor ownage
