Hi Tom,
I was using white clear Plexiglass 10mm, the best result than any other plastic. Like a 'crispy' material that create smooth texture. I don't use any vice or clamp, just put double tape at the bottom side.

Hey,

I know its been a long time since I've read this or even bothered to reply. That's really nice! Clear Lexan?

I assume you held that in a vise, I don't see a lot of room for clamps.

Hi Tom,
Wow........ good tools
I use 3Ds Max for modeling and export via DXF to Modela Player 4 (Roland MDX-40 software). Modela player will generate the tool path and executed the machine. See my project at http://x5model.blogspot.com/2009/09/goo ... rigid.html
Now I'm doing on Goodyear Blimp model 1:200 scale with Mr Ron Crawford (USA).

Thanks for your comment, I'm waiting the reply for long time. Sorry for the late reply.

Same here. Mori Seiki NV5000 at work, Millport 3KV fitted with an Ajaxcnc control at home.

Is there any idea to start a ship project?

What kind of CAD/CAM do you use? I use Solidworks and Mastercam.

My interest in modeling lead me to build a submarine 2 months ago. See my post....
