LASER & CNC - Cutting, Etching, Engraving & 3D Printing Services

[monojeff]

Capabilities/Machines:

2 CNC Tables
4'x10' & 5'x10'
Machines can route, engrave, etch just about any material you can imagine.
Wood, Acrylic, PVC, Carbon Fiber, Foam, Aluminum.....
At the moment I do not offer 3D routing but hoping to get into that in the upcoming year.

100 Watt Laser:
Approximately 4'x4' Cutting area (Longer things are possible with registration)
I can laser large/tall objects up to about 1' tall such as Prop boxes and anything else like that, the table has a removable bed so height isn't ever an issue.

3D Printer (Z Corp Color Powder Printer)
This printer prints with multiple layers of powder which get hardened and is capable of printing colors.


Any questions please feel free to ask.
I will be posting some photos/samples in the up coming weeks/months but figured I would start the thread and get the ball rolling.

This is so awesome!

One current project I am working on is 3D printed Scale Motors and Drivers.
They will be offered in all Scales & Sizes.
Stay tuned!

Here is a photo of a test motor I printed up for fun.
The other motor shown is a resin cast & foam motor from my 1/10 scale for reference.

How heavy would the motor be Jeff?

Still working on that without having exact print to measure can't really get a reading.
It needs to be hollowed out otherwise it would be heavy. The one I printed is solid and weights a god amount.
With things hollowed out I am hoping weight will not be an issue.

Can't be too heavy, I was just reading in the local paper that they made a prosthetic for a young girl with a 3D printer. Maybe Jeff can get that spare hand he needs at times now.

Sorry, just home from a long day.

That is some very cool new gear you have there Jeff.

Haha to funny I would love some extra hands!
Seriously though there is some awesome new things going on in the 3D printing world.
The 3D filament printers they have started to print rubber with them now so the prosthetic hands they really do make they can now make joints for them out of rubber by 3D printing them. Really cool stuff.

Defiantly some cool machines and I am truly blessed to work at a shop that has these machines in it.
There is a world of possibilities in the manufacturing/creating/maker world it's awesome to be a part of it.

I am still learning the 3D programs to truly be able to utilize the 3D printer to its capacity.
I wish it was easy as hit the PRINT button but it's most definitely NOT.
Excited to do a lot more with it this coming year!

Here are a few more samples of some things that have been done lately on the laser:
Aluminum etched plate
Etched fish bone gift decoration
Awards/Plaques
Routed wooden dove with laser etched lettering

There was a guy in Canada printing motors for a while. Used to run Lou's Fast Electric RC. Maybe someone still has a contact for him. It wouldn't surprise me if he still has the files and isn't using them for anything. He had a whole collection of them at the time.

Hook me up. If I had good files to use id be off and running on the scale motors.
I have seen some seriously detailed 1/8 scale motors I found which are plastic model parts I assume injected something. They were pretty good prices as was thinking of contacting that company I found to see if they would be interested in some type of partnership. Any help greatly appreciated.
Otherwise I'm just going to use it as learning experience and draw my own.

Pete Steinke has sold off the building that he used to keep that 3D printer at. He doesn't run boats anymore but, is a full time entrepreneur importing and selling electric bikes at Golectric. I should call him, it's been a long time since I talked to him.

I still have f few of his parts. Jeff the motor's would need some work. I sold some of them and the material used than was real rough and almost a sandy texture

Sounds similar to the material out printer has.
Some light sanding is typically required but nothing major.
The binder fluid used at the end to harden things should also help smooth things out.
Some filler primer and should be pretty darn smooth.
We haven't had any issues smoothing things out and making them nice and clean.

Just a phone pic but here is one

Nice toy I knoiw that will come in handy I will keep that in mind good luck with it Jeff!
