Dust Shoe Prototype for the Carvetight

[henry1]

I am working on it right now Henry. (I have not had much carving time since this week.) I cannot seem to get the thing to carve right. I need to tweak a few things but I cannot because the front and back do not line up when I carve them. I thought it was a puffing bug but now I do not know. I may have to post it so you can carve it.

I have no problem with that,, I am more than happy to help you out,, and it help me out also

Ok I finally figured out it was my machine and not the mpc or puffing that was causing the problems. So here is the Shoe Top. I made the hole in the top larger for the Rock. If you carve it as a double sided carve, you will have some large tabs to cut. You can split it into to single carves. (That is what I do.) Remember to touch where the bearing hole will be on the bottom side and then for the top, touch on the carrier board (or somewhere which is 1/2 inch from the back.)

I made a little cup for the earlier CT version which fits in the hole and holds the window down lower. I do not know, however, how close the Rock comes to the board. I need to know the total length of the Rock (without adapter) below the truck bearing as well as the dimensions the part of the adapter which sticks out. There may be a problem with the cup if it has to be too deep. Only a small ring gap will be left for the chips and longer, stringy chips may plug it up. In any case a shallow cup which easily pops in and out would probably be ok for Rock users.

Nice one but I can't download it to my card I haven't got the software 3D to be able to use it,, I just notice if I delete the connected line I am able to download it to the memory card, and what about the last shoe bottom I still can use it the one I already carved

Sorry, that was the tilt tool. I will have to convert to a pattern and re post. Thanks Henry.
