HI Travis,
Firstly Welcome to the Group. Your skill set and plan for your project sounds great.
It would be amazing to see you take the existing drawings
and technical correctness to the next level on paper or in modern software.
I myself was a focused drafting student,
though back when I did it, cad was in like version 1.0.
And we Sat at giant drawing boards for hours spending stupid amounts of time hand drawing arrows and perfect lines with no pc in site though we did have one of the first cnc lathes in the same room to play with.
Travis Do you think you can try you hand at improving the
standard of what is being done?
Every one is doing a great job , but we are all pressed for time,
hence the short responses.
and some things could use fresh eyes and more technically
correct improvement when we look from a industrial drafting point of view .
Travis
Objective as a budding professional in industrial drafting is to bring the forums work to and beyond industry production standard in a variety of formats hard copy and modern software versions?
including cnc
Travis for your project please Identify
What would be your focus and key target points to improve from what is done?
This means you would look at the work on the sections of forum
for various parts that make up system
and improve the quality of drawings both mechanical & technical correction
of all the works done to date.= Mechanically drawn updated standard &
correctly recreated in the software.
Many members are working to measure and build things
now and will continue to post at the same time,
so your work goal should be to improve on what they have and are doing
quickly and have a focus to produce and cover industrial drawings and
small parts areas that not being done. like gas gun parts.
Some are not in final stages, but if you posted software versions or
posted as you go, people will be prompted to help you and correct what they can.
You will be contributing to a very good cause
and I am sure all forums members
would realize you would post as you go and post finals of your final work to forum on the other forums and to the machine shops or the school work shop
or at any adjacent schools for them to machine to you plans as a projects for others working lathes.
I am sure all forums members would like to see your work posted
and comment on it so it improves all works to be technically correct.
In same case things are drawn "good but rough " at present due to
time and extra skill time need to dot the i's.
If you could make a plan to focus on strengthening weak areas
and improve them and post the modern versions in the modern software
files as well as jpeg etc it would be a great assistance to group.
You could file them in this thread so not to confused work going on.
Like all good projects
if you were to assist in this way you must set objectives and plan
first how to apply your energy and focus. To reach you grade goal.
As with all tasks and goals , to re enforce what we have done to date.
so your not copying it your finding weak spots , using your
industrial drafting EYES and
improving the technical side of it and where possible drawing items
that have not been drawn yet to a industrial tech drawing scale
Russ and others could help a little on areas not done as there are many parts floating around in his and member heads that could
get info done on.
like gas gun and gas ionizer. EPG STACK Vic Style 2 round bobbin housing etc etc
============================================
SO Travis if your up to the challenge
Take Items Like the gas gun injector and modernize them
with your industrial drafting techniques and
do them to a improved modern industrial standard.
============================================
ONe thing I would like to know Travis
is if in your effortt can match the output files from any work you do
to CNC lathing files formats. and what is the industry stand format of such
a file ?
If you learn and master that for forum
It means we could give format straight to cnc machinists to put in the
file format into the cnc programs of industrial cnc lathes directly.
Your teacher may help on that knowledge or you may need
to visit a modern cnc
outfit to discuss it, again this would really help the group and world.
============================================
Now that my friend would shake up things at this point in time and advance forum and
make a great study case of you work /project.
Welcome
and go for it But ....
."ROCK IT TRAVIS"Make it mind blowing.
Daniel PS do 3d modeling with your current software
and tech drawing.
It would be cool to see the file format you use
and learn of what software canfind that connect to CNC lathes/mills and routers.

Hi Travis
rather than reading every thing keep you mind sharp
and clear on drawing
