Neat project.  Personally, I really like the shape; it adds character.

Roger,

Glad you like the current project, and the shape, well that's proving to be ok too  :)  I may have to make all future ones that way if the softer copper doesn't play nicely  :scratch:


Eric,

Good job I can take a joke.... Just wait till I get the chance to return it.... I'll be all like whitty an' stuff!!  ::)


No progress on this till I get the new parts.... Next week I suppose... Been spending this evening designing and making jigs for my finger engine attempts! I'll post them when completed....I'll give the keys to my photo album (well the link!) and anyone interested can root through all the pics they like!

Looking forward to the link.

BTW, I think what you have done so far is outstanding. Actually pressing the shapes... how cool is that??

I could give the link now.... But I think I'd like a little more progress on them first    :dremel: 

I'm really pleased with the current outcome, I'm just trying to figure out how to mount the little blighter!!??

I've been drawing, screwing up and drawing some more this evening..... :coffee:  I might have to go for the executive mounting system... The one which costs a bomb in materials!!!

I'm struggling to envision the frame between wire and full barstock... I'll get there  :smart: 

No CNC here.... This has all to be manually created and preferably repeatable!  So not too many fancy latice works coming from this direction!



Right.... Off to bed I think! Got to drive over to see John tomorrow  :)




Ralph.


Ha!!! So much for off to bed.... I was reading through the post before I let it fee and suddenly thought of a reasonably quick and not too expensive mounting idea... Who says you can't think straight at 2:00am!!!   :thumbup:  So I've just drawn it up.... Used a ruler and compasses and everything! I must be mad! (Don't bother with the answer to that!!)

Now I'm going to bed!  :D
