    Thanks for the crash course in pattern making. I have read several of these terms and concepts online but you have summarized them nicely in this video.

      I am by no means an expert, but the basics are pretty straight forward. Trained pattern makers are able to do things like anticipate distortion through shrinkage - things that I can only guess at.

    Wow , that's the real deal. I already am going through the operations to machine it. As you know, the original has seen better days, and if I had my way, we'd be casting a new one . Great job as usual. Ya champion

      No probs Phil. This was a little different to the patterns I normally do, so an interesting change. I'll get it finished off and sent to you at some stage - maybe the owner will be convinced by a shmick looking pattern.

      ​absolutely Michael, I'll convince him. All the big foundries around here have shut down now, but a couple of small ones are still going.
      I should take it in for a quote.

    Very interesting. Nice work sir. He he. I know the feeling of thinking why did I do that to myself. You made it look easy

      I'm certainly not an expert at this, but am slowly learning a few tricks

    What 3D CAD package were you using? And would you recommend it if they do a free/makers/DIY/cheap version?

    • @occasionalmachinist

      That was done in Solidworks. I quite like it but I don't think they do a cheap version. I did download a copy of Solidedge a while back under a community licence. Most of these programs operate in a similar way - it's just the command jargon and structure that you have to get used to.

      @occasionalmachinist Many thanks. I was looking at Solidworks rather than Fusion as they are tying Fusion in knots with restrictions. There is a "Makers" version of Solidworks for £50, I decided to buy that. Then, onto the learning curve!
