I’ve gotten most of the LR3 built but now need to build a table. I really like the thoughtful design with the superstrut rails that @DougJoseph has done. I really like that the design allows me to hide the belts and use the table for other things without disassembling the LR.
The issue is that I don’t have room in my garage for a full 4’x8’ table but would like to build one that is approx 3’x5’. I have downloaded the Fusion 360 Model and tried mucking about with the parameters without much success.
I have found and changed the Width_Cut_Size_X to 36 and Length_Cut_Size_Y to 60 but the model doesn’t seem to recalculate correctly. This only seems to be an issue when changing the Width_Cut_Size_X.
In order to debug the issue I have only changed the Width_Cut_Size_X and attached a screen grab at that point. It looks to me like there are several issues that I would like to fix before proceeding with other changes but really don’t know how.
Y spars are out of position and a slot is missing
The “arms” of the X ribs are too long
the Unistrut pieces dropped down ( I think this is due to the issue above because the angle changes )
The Fusion 360 approach to parametric-driven designs has some issues that apparently OnShape has figured out. Ryan says parameter changes in OnShape does not break things nearly as often as in Fusion.
Sometimes it seems the breaking is less likely when the parameter changes are smaller amounts of change.
I made several different sizes available, and one of them may do better on the edit to your desired size, if the starting point is closer to your end goal. However, they are apparently all for wood rails tables instead of superstrut metal rails.
If I can get some time, I can edit and fix one at the size you are aiming for. I cannot get to it right away.
I think I am on the v1 version of the F360 file. I will take a look at the V3 version. I saw wood rail version of the 30x60 earlier so I will try that out if the v3 version If that doesn’t work out.
