DMullen Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 looks great mate until its all scratched some of my gcse project is acrylic and it scratched so easily \ we have this stuff in school its like a sealer, all the acrylic in our projects gets wiped down with it and it makes it more durable \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jez Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 cut this on the laser cutter yesterday, handy piece of kit still needs tweaking and painting. have a folding one designed, just need to wait until the teacher isnt about to get it cut feedback appreciated Looking great mate. Is it cut from one piece of black plastic? Or is it painted? Only comment I have mate is that the tines look a bit long for a buckrake but like I say it is a great piece of work and I hope you don't mind me commenting...

DMullen Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 cheers lads jez, im going to work on the tines maybe make them shorter and maybe a few less, and yes cut from one sheet of acrylic in 33 seconds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intey 434 Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 The only thing we get to use in technolgy is the cad-cam machine > its a curse as it takes ages! you have it all set up next thing some tit hits the emergancy stop button and you have to start setting up again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 tidy work Dave, i'd shorten the tines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Very good, this kind of tool could be great I reckon for cultivator frames etc. After seeing what a company near me can do with a laser punch (rather than cutter) I can only say I was intrigued to the fullest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
