this is the counterweight of the machine, this is only the model 3d printed to obtain the final part from casting
The first thing to decide is the material, in this case I have chosen to make the counterweight, lead, by weight it would be totally out of scale, but I want to give a certain touch of "forcefulness" to the machine, besides, to remove there is always time
next part, letters and details, at this time i thought to use 3d printed part, but sure i have troubles in cast, no way, plan B
the cast
I have to pause.. a little problem
a rebob (i donĀ“t know if is the correct word, a superficial fail) i have to repair, first i have to prepare the surface and after use a epoxy putty to fill the fail and and a lot of sanding by hand...
... or not, better to use the machines
