so true. As for the rp machine, it is toast, so we may get one, maybe not, but if we do it will have the capibilities to make castings .
woowoo! cast aluminum rotors! |
screw casting it, Mill it out from a solid billet.
casting is not easy to do, and is very delicate process. Impurities, the rate at which it cools and such begins to be a headache. It becomes a bigger headache when your part goes boing! and you are left wondering if you fucked up because you went through the wrong parts of the phase diagrams or you got an impiruty in the sample. CNC milling is the way to go if you are doing small scale runs. |

Ya thats my physics class......................................
the whole top row of the class plays games all class, when the teacher isn't talking you can hear "clickclick". grrrrrrrrrr |
Damn I cant wait until I get going with that stuff.
Starting college this fall at Rose-Hulman IT , should be some good stuff. What kind of cool stuff have you guys made in those programs anyways? |
I CNC'd a 3D surface. That was the dumbest thing i've ever done.
That was a waste of CNC machine time, which is big bucks |
hhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm...................
cnc eh............... Sounds good. Wonder how high you could rev a 13b with the aluminum rotors? |
wait im posting as dave
the above post was actually -=drift=- |
DRIFT,
Why don't you try to reverse eng housings for the wankel. I wanted to do this before but the equipment was just being installed when I was there. I got some housings if you want them... |
I forgot, start it off with plastic on a smaller scale
I'm sure you've thought of that |
