Re: Iron Man 3 Mark VIII (WIP) Updated 2/27



Sorry for the lack of updates guys. A little busy at the start of the week. Mid week Eagon and I got together and started toolpathing what we feel is the hardest part, the face plate. We spent a few hours programming it, trying to get as much detail from the file as we can. Realistically the quality of the file is good enough that it should be 5-axis machined, which we lack, so we have what we have.



We used the same method on this part as we did the ears. Machined the first side (this side is VERY rough as it will not be seen), drilled holes for locating pins, drilled a jig, located the part with precision ground pins, and then finished the part. None of the pictures in this update will be the finished faceplate as it is still in the machine cutting.



Hope you enjoy and hopefully we will have a nice looking part in the morning.
