I do not know how much it will cost, so I cannot name the price for which I want to purchase it. I do not know how quickly this can be made, so I can not indicate the date when I need it. I live in Germany and do not know if anyone is available in this country.

Can they tell me how much it will cost?]]> Alexander Afeldt Turning Thoughts into ThingsSat, 21 Aug 2021 13:09:47 -0400 https://100kgarages.com/forum/read.php?2,333,333#msg-333 https://100kgarages.com/forum/read.php?2,333,333#msg-333
I think it would really enable a lot. It is a bit more complicated than I would like, but a process that allows us to make high quality parts with high complexity and variety would really open up a whole new world. You could make all kinds of replacement parts and high quality metal machine parts. We could do things like make our own generators or other highly complex equipment. Medical equipment will also be a killer app.

It took a little effort but I didnt scratch the paint and the new Roundel looks great. I don't mind, I was just wondering abut this, and I saw it at the top of the forum. The original thread starter, may no longer need this, but it still helps a lot of people Everyone complains when the search button isn't used. When it is and an old thread comes up you tell him not to post. I give the guy props for taking the time to look it up before starting a new thread.

Edit: Nevermind. I just saw that the person who posted didn't add anything significant and just posted to an old ass thread. My bad. Prying the emblem with a screwdriver, no matter what precautions you take with a cloth, tape, or a credit card, is almost sure to scratch your finish. One wonders why someone would bother to post with that obvious (and wrong) method. If it were that easy, no one would be googling the problem. Wrapping the screwdriver with tape won't work because the emblem fits way too tightly to the hood. The screwdriver is already too thick to go under there, wrapping it with tape makes the problem even worse.

Getting the emblem off the hood is a tough problem and though I don't have a solution for you, I can tell you not to try to pry it out with a screwdriver. Some of the reasons that it's a tough problem are:
The emblem is countersunk, making it tough to get any tool in there. When working with a screwdriver you have to try and insert it at a steep angle to the surface, causing gouges.
The emblem seals watertight against the surface, that way no water gets under there and it doesn't mildew. That means there is no crack between the emblem and the surface into which you can insert a tool.
The bottom edge of the emblem does not admit a tool, it's designed to hug tightly to the surface and form a seal. So when working with any tool, screwdriver, credit card, dental floss, or nylon packing strap, it's tough to get under that emblem at all.
The emblem is stuck in there tightly, so even when you do get a tool under it, it's going to take a lot of force to start the emblem moving.
The emblem will flex when pried and just snap back into position, further frustrating any efforts.

The best method I've seen is to use a nylon packing strap that's a half inch or so wide. If you can work that under there and get it out the other side, you can use it as a strap to pull the emblem up. That would not gouge the finish. However, I can't see any way to get that packing strap even started. ken is it a bad thing that iv been feeding the inner troll lately?]]> David Summerbell Turning Thoughts into ThingsSun, 29 May 2016 15:22:05 -0400 https://100kgarages.com/forum/read.php?2,145,145#msg-145 https://100kgarages.com/forum/read.php?2,145,145#msg-145Is anybody else getting "fatal error" messages after submitting bids for items on the Project Board?
I should have taken a screenshot and posted, but it just started for me in the past 2 days.

Wondering if it's just me or if there's a glitch somewhere with the website.

Thx for the input!

"This year’s questionnaire, which has taken most respondents 15 minutes or less to complete, delves into many operational areas, sales volumes, product preferences, and practices custom woodworking and cabinet shops currently do, and seeks to find a road map to succeeding as a small to mid-sized business owner or manager. Simply put, we need your data to fill in the picture of what works, as well as what isn’t working in your area."

I make a small piece of computer furniture called the KwikPit, it’s a cockpit type set up that is used with flight simulation gaming.

I make the units by hand which is turning into an impossible task considering consistency and time which is where a CNC router would come in. just talking to the large manufacturers makes someone give up on doing a project if they want less than an n ( 100-500 or more) number of pieces. I’ve been a member for a while and figured this is a good place to start.

I have drawings of the unit with measurements but they are not CAD drawings. I assume the first thing to do is find a designer to produce a CAD file.

I’m assuming the next thing would be for a fabber to produce a prototype to see where things need to be adjusted. There’s probably many steps in between but that’s the general idea I assume.

Some general info is that it will made of colored laminated 5/8”particle board like the furniture you see in Walmart and other places. It will be assembled using the Titus 5 system which uses cams and dowels like the majority of the RTA stuff you see today.

I’m attaching a couple of pics of the unit for a general idea of what it looks like. I appreciate any guidance or advice from anyone on the forum that has a thought about what I’m attempting to do, I'm in Denver Colorado.

I am a newly set up faber and I am looking for projects to run on my new machine. As I look around the web I keep finding references to a library of designs on 100k garages but when I click on the link I get bounced to the main page. Once there I can't find the materials I was looking for. Have things changed? Whats the deal?

Specifically reading the boatbuilding page on the shopbot page it references all kinds of really cool resources on 100kgarages but I can't find them. Am I just not looking in the right place or have they been removed?]]> Moore Brothers Company Turning Thoughts into ThingsTue, 05 May 2015 22:06:44 -0400 https://100kgarages.com/forum/read.php?2,99,99#msg-99 https://100kgarages.com/forum/read.php?2,99,99#msg-99
We are in the process of planning a Designer and Fabber Co-Working Space and Cooperative in Chicago. Our focus will be in designing and fabricating every kind of material associated within the building industry. Our goal is to design build fabricate our buildings from conception to completion locally. We are looking for architects, engineers, designers, building artisans, trades-persons and other passionate people in creating beautiful buildings and public spaces. It is time we design, develop and fabricate our own edifices.

I am a designer in Brevard, NC with a line of children's furniture. For the last 2 years, I have been doing direct to customer sales and am looking to expand in to the wholesale market mid- to late 2014. I am looking for a facility that will work with me as sales increase, new designs are released, and will be patient as I shift the market of my business. In a nutshell, someone who is willing to do some smaller runs, but capable of higher quantities as that time comes.

You can see my line at www.chemedesigns.com. If you have any questions or are interested in talking, give me a call or shoot me an e-mail.

Thanks!
