Embossing Plate Group Buy

[Grooveski]

You're right. Mag-alloy's putty, filing off the remnants of a cut line would be a doddle.

I've got designs separated in boxes at the moment, but was thinking of removing them before posting the file. I'll leave them on just in case and James can always delete them if they're not wanted.

g4ghb, I'm sticking all mine in a rectangle. You don't need to cut them all out, I've got a coping saw here.
Nice one for getting this together by the way.

Sorry guys been laid up since last Wednesday so not online, couldn’t face driving a PC. All who want a design on the plate can use the send email to in my profile to send images, my maximum size attachment is 2mb per email if you wish me to download an image then pm me the url if it is not in the thread. I will compile a list toward the end of the week and contact any of the interested parties that have not sent me images then.



Espy the method you describe about dividing the plate is pretty much how I was going to do it apart from the channels. I will divide the plate buy marking out and then cut with a deep throated piercing saw, remove any burr and that will be it. If there is a further requirement for smoothing with wet and dry or polishing that will have to done by the recipient.

back to work tomorrow i will be checking my email then after 6 days !!!!!!!post again the whrn my head is clearer

Nick

 

[jdlenton]

hi nick how big do you want you design to be the one i have is very large?

James

 

[NickBristol]

i think it should be about 3inches by 2 inches. Can you see that being a problem?

 

[jdlenton]

cant see a problem at all its just the drawing i have is about 500mm long!!! i will resize it and it'll be ok

James

 

[Grooveski]

Oops, wrong drawing units. Line width three quarters of an inch. Was working on a house plan in imperial last week.

 

[jdlenton]

i have updated the list for images recieved will post more in a short whil busy now

James

 

[g4ghb]

Ok Guys the deadline has passed and james is busy sorting out the final image /s

I know he is going to update the list in a bit so please bear with us whlie we work out the final details and then I'll get out the final costs.

To be in the safe side with the uncertanty of postage and packageing i will err on the side of caution and any over i will donate to charity (well bushcraftUK) if you don't have any objections!?

so far unless James has already received it we are waiting for images from


Stickie Not Received
Fluxus Not Received
TomTom Tentative
Fenlander Kevin did you send me a final image?

Have you sent your image to james? he is producing the final image and was compileing it together over the xmas break. I'm not sure how far he has got as we tend to only chat at work and he is on his school hols now! Would pay to drop him a pm, if he can fit you in i'm happy...

 

[Wayland]

BTW, Wayland, we bounced your file about today and it's all cool now.

Sorry, only just noticed the "Issues". What was the problem?

 

[Grooveski]

Just file transfer trivialities.
E-mail sent to your enquiries address.

 

[g4ghb]

Right Just a Bounce to update you all!


Things have turned out to take longer than expected with creating the artwork (Anyone good at jigsaws? ) Seriously though things are still progressing so it won't be too much longer before I can get final details out!

Hold on in there chaps the end is in sight
