CNC-cut table for LowRider v3 (parameterized, for cutting full sheets+)

Good point. I neutered my post above.

The numbers in my spreadsheet are outdated, was only to show how I get the numbers I was talking.
I donā€™t have F&S for the LR4 yet, Iā€™m going to mill the aluminum strut plates and than start testing things in the proper way!
Iā€™ll share all my testing about in a future topic :grin:

OK, Okā€¦let me try asking another way.

Doug, when you cut the full sheet torsion box for your friend chaz, (albeit on a LR3) how long did it take to cut the pieces for the torsion box. Roughly? an hour, two, eight? AND should expect similar results on the LR4?

Thatā€™s what I need to know so that I can be assured that when I go screwing shit to the stage floor to bootstrap the table, I will have enough time to complete the job and clean up before the next person(s) come to use the space.

Itā€™s a fair question. Itā€™s been quite a while and memory is fuzzy. More like between an hour and two, not eight. LR4 should be able to do it in a shorter time, but I donā€™t have hard numbers on it yet, just a sense that itā€™s more rigid and can be pushed somewhat faster.

I just went back and looked at my video of cutting a full sheet capable torsion box table.

The cutting starts about 1 minute in, and ends at about 13 minutes in, and I think that playback was sped up by 10x, so, 12 minutes x 10 = 120 minutes. So two hours seems doable.

Thanks!

Machine is at the very bottom ā€œOthersā€ or ā€œMiscā€ or I donā€™t know. All the others are the machines they sell. :smiley:
