I started this under the owners thread, but I will be posting the build of the wirefofms here. Quick summary is I have had enough pms asking me to do Star Wars that I bought the machine to do so.
I will have a plasma cutting table in a few weeks thanks to a friend buying a larger one. That will enable me to make alot more custom projects including Star Wars. I will be able to mass produce the steel ramps that are simuliar to the ones on the premiums. That is important because this machine has very long ramps and it is easier to transition the ramps to wireforms with them being made of steel for me. Its easier to cut and tig weld ramps over plastic.
I am starting with 18 gauge stainless steel plates. The thickness looks right to me, but I will know when I make the prototypes. The plates are not cheap! I will need to program cutter to get every inch out of the plates. I think I will make protos out of standard steel to get the shapes down first for mock ups.
Please feel free to pm me if your interested in being placed on the might be interested list.
And if there are other machines that are of interest to switch to wireforms please let me know. I am alwayz looking for more work.
Thanks and enjoy my dementia..
