Fitty% 808 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Sweetness!Let me know when you're comfortable and set up for engraving / machining professionally, and I'll have some work for you! And I'll send work your way. I'll hook a brotha up! Macbeau sends... Thanks!.....but I'll only be able to do this while Im in school and have free access to a HASS CNC mill. I'm pretty comfortable with engraving now and I always run the program sim and run it on a test piece before I actually engrave. What would you want engraved? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Only a Draco SBR, Ithaca SBS, Norinco .223. S-12 and back cover on MD 20 drum. Perhaps a S308 and Norinco drum. I am a huge supporter of members here who want to start a great idea / business.! That's why I said "professionally" I know you don't have the equipment, business license or possibly FFL to handle the NFA stuff now. But I do want to get in on the ground floor. I see you going places. I am good with a MD20 back plate for now! Macbeau sends... Edited January 28, 2013 by macbeau 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The only thing though is they would have to be stripped down as far as you could like receiver and barrel because the school would freak out if it looks like a gun that can be fired lol. But yeah you could send me the drum covers and tell me what you want on them and if I can do it I will!. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gunfun 3,931 Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Looks cool. I can't think of any thing I would want engraved yet, but I'll keep you in mind if I ever do. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maxwelhse 1,285 Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) You figure out what formats you can import? edit: mods deleted offensive post... Edited January 29, 2013 by Maxwelhse Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fitty% 808 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 You figure out what formats you can import? edit: mods deleted offensive post... It wasn't really offensive because he was joking and I was with him when he posted it lol. We weren't able to do a lot and they closed the school down early today because of something with the water I think. I'll get the formats tomorrow! Sorry! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maxwelhse 1,285 Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 No rush, but I am excited at the notion and if you can import typical 3D modelling formats, then it's ON! Russian letters? No problem... Sorry, didn't know he was just breakin' balls! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cvhanh20 1,052 Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 My school has featurecam and solidworks but featurecam is what I've been using. I'm not sure if solidworks generates G-code or not. Solidworks is not a cam package but does have an area for cam plugins. Keep up the good work, If you work hard enough at this trade you maybe one day be a master machinist, thats when you can turn parts on a mill and make square parts on a lathe, pretty much build a mold with a file kinda thing. It took me only 10 tens to achieve that level, a lot of pissed off journeyman as I blew passed them. But remember to show those respect who are willing to show you the way, no one gets to the top alone. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Id need to see the shape of the knife to see if I could find a way to secure it in the CNC mill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
