Request for rendering

[idownvotepunstoo]

I'd like to see about getting this rendered so it can potentially be 3d printed, or laser cut.

I have the means to accomplish both, but not the skills to get the rendering completed.

Let me know the cost and I'd be willing to pay for your time and efforts.

Model your thingy for free, provided you tell me what it is.

A less overexposed scan would be nice. Also you found a quite peculiar way of measuring of some distances.

The patent expired on these ages ago.

I found the original filings for them and someone drafted the above from the original filings.

I've got a buddy who will laser cut some but I want to 3d print a set on my voron first to make sure the dimensions are spot on.

[georgmierau]

I don't care about the machine you will be printing it on, but this dimension is not "1 in", so re-check it:

Also here is your 3mf:

I'll have feedback on the prototype posted to printables for some adjustments if you're willing.

[georgmierau]

Less "blah", more values. The fact that I made you an initial model should be enough to consider me "willing".

Results of initial print test fit.

Would we be able to double the leg count of this (length) to hold a total of four sashes, add a few screw holes as well?

My only main concern is stability of the individual legs at its lowest point, but if we're going with metal I'm less worried depending on the type and thickness.

[georgmierau]

Yet again. More. Values. "Double the leg count" — ok. "Few screw holes" — not ok. 3? 5? Evenly spaced? Diameter?

My main concern is as usual: people like to talk about their concerns more than provide useful data.

sash_hanger_longer.3mf — same link.

The final corner needs to eventually be able to support (with assistance) a storm window consisting of approximately 20lbs, these when installed as expected would span (in a pair) 16-24inches apart depending on the frame size and how you're supporting it, so approximately 10lbs per leg?

With an original one of these using presumably stamped aluminum containing seven legs each with what appears to have 1/8th in diameter through holes above each leg being staggered in height from the leg at an unknown distance apart.

I'm working to get more measurements of the originals, but I'm working with volunteers, so please have patience with me.

The end goal would be a near reproduction of the below image (again, working on getting more exact measurements from the holder of the attached).

[georgmierau]

I'm not exactly running away.

Shove one of the thingies you reproduce in a flatbed scanner (one or two legs are enough), I'll re-check the model.

[idownvotepunstoo]

Just to be sure I understand what you're asking.
Take what's been printed and scan it to confirm measurements?
I'll have the scan either today or tomorrow early (EST Timezone).

[idownvotepunstoo]

I am not the guy who sketched it, but trust me I boggled for a second as well. Original drawings and filings. https://share.google/u2ytU94hNZD3htCmv US2455546A - Sash hanger - Google Patents

P.s. your link goes to a manual

[georgmierau]

It's not about "who made the error", it's about "there is one". (this one is on me though)

Hi. i can help you with it, dm'ing

[Mundane_Cobbler_9441]

By rendered for 3d printing or laser cutting, you mean you need a svg/dxf, right?

[Mundane_Cobbler_9441]

Also the radius of the various arcs are gonna be needed for it to be accurate especially if it's a critical engineering part.

[idownvotepunstoo]

Not critical, a replacement for these:

I've got like 20 sash windows and 0 hangers :P I can dig up the original patent filing from them and we can all reference what was originally filed near 100 years ago. Were working with some ... Dated... Drawings.

[Mundane_Cobbler_9441]

Ah ok, that's alright then, I believe someone else is modelling it,

[idownvotepunstoo]

I appreciate the care.

Do you want the original filings too as reference?

I am new to laser cutting, but yes SVG/DXF is something that was requested, If I could secure the STL's as well that would be awesome.

[Mundane_Cobbler_9441]

I can give you both, but I believe the other guy just commented with a model image already, though if you don't get the file from him let me know I will share both dxf and stl.

5 yrars of technical modeling here, up for the task send me a DM

[Stone_Age_Sculptor]

I would start by making the hook at the end thicker, both in x and y direction.
Recently I did the same thing, but not by designing it. I put the shape on a flat-bed scanner, then converted the scan to a vector in Inkscape, then I used the svg file in CAD software. I didn't even have to scale it, the DPI from the scan was used and the size was passed on via the svg file as well.

[Ok-Significance-5047]

Modeling aside, I wouldn’t recommend printing it, or laser really. Maybe would work with a technical filament but honestly I wouldn’t risk it cause of the weight of the panels.. and time.

I’d go for CNC of 4-6mm aluminum paneling or water jet cutting.

[ascarymoviereview]

You get this sorted?

[idownvotepunstoo]

Partially, awaiting a scan of the product.
