Cutting machine...
 



Do anyone know how to buy/ make such a cutter?

I know how to make a hand-hold one, but what`s involved to do what he did? This would be great tool to make
a short cut to do any modelcast for a plug.
I`m about to learn the Autocad program, wich would be the base here. But the machinery itselves, is most interesting...[X(]

Anyone?

You mean a CNC machine? There was a thread a few days ago about one at Sears for under 2K.

This is the one from Sears. www.carvewright.com For some reason the mods shut the other thread down. Said it was off topic. Whatever! This one from Sears, I think, would be good for making small parts. I have downloaded the software, seems to work for what I need to do.

No, not a CNC, but like the one he uses here.

Hallo Gudmund.
Here is another example of double curvature foam cutting:
http://www.scalewings.com/entwicklung.php

It looks like any cnc foam cutter, and he is using software from: http://gm.cnc.free.fr/en/ The Step four software will propably also do 3d cutting http://www.step-four.at/

Good place to study any type of homebuilt cnc equipment is the cnc-zone. http://www.cnczone.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=21
