Stuff & Things: I'll give anything a shot

EZ30R Exhaust Header Flanges

A set of custom exhaust header flanges for an EZ30R engine.

This was an interesting project, since I had no dimensions or drawings to go off of, and the engine was not entirely disassembled, preventing easy measurement. Finding repeatable and accurate measurements on a cast body is sometimes rough – no pun intended – too.

With a little application of dykem bluing and cardboard, an imprint was taken to work off of.

Modeled in Solidworks and programmed 90% in Featurecam (10% on the fly at the controller).

3D Printed Smoking Earrings

This customer came to me and asked me if I would make them sets of plastic blanks for them to do fine (literally small) painting and texturing on. My pleasure! A little time in Fusion360 and then some tinkering with the Prusa slicer, and I had the perfect blank canvases for this person to create beautiful, custom art.

These are some of my favorite things to make – give me a shout, and let me make a design for you.

Shift Pattern Christmas Ornaments

Made in 3 different patterns, these were originally gifts for folks who drove manual vehicles. Simple aluminum circles with different shift patterns punched in them, these have proven to be popular Christmas ornaments.

Drawn in Fusion360 (I think?) and exported to the native Trumpf software.
