Started a forum topic: Custom CNC prototyping?

Does any one know of some fairly low cost places that do CNC prototyping from CAD models? I need to do a run of prototype props for a film I’m working on. Worse comes to worse I’ll just build them the old fashioned way, but I was just wondering if anyone had a place I could check!

This isn’t really anything at all, but I “officially” started working on my packs. Started off by making molds of my various resistor pieces. <a class="lightbox" href="//gbfans-discourse.storage.googleapis.com/original/1X/2825720bd5ad998da3c3b18dd4dc3467b676e0f0.gif" data-download-href="/uploads/short-url/5J9kaTXk1rZ1mQ4ihLE4fmRqMb6.gif?dl=1" title="image" rel="noopener nofollow ugc">[image]</a> These were the “Crap, I cut myself… but the resin is already mixed a little… crap crap crap… pour… ahh, it’s on my table… crap…” quick pour ones.

Hi, I don’t know if anyone else is having the trouble I’m having, but I can’t find all the parts needed at RadioShack. I’ve been trying to find the rest at various electronics places online, but I have no idea which things to get for certain pieces. The parts listed with their RS parts numbers tha&hellip;

Started a forum topic: New(?) Resistor information...

Forgive me if this has already been discovered, but while I was reading through the page on which <a href="https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/dale-resistors" class="sitemap-autolink sitemap-autolink-content" data-sitemap-autolink="true" data-autolink-type="content" data-autolink-term="dale resistors" data-autolink-id="2168">dale resistors</a> were used, I noticed it said there was some debate over the rh25 being the proper resistor. That combined with dumb luck(searching on ebay for the resistors), I found this <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/Resistor-0-7-Ohms-25-Watts-PACIFIC-25CH-25_W0QQitemZ7519022352QQihZ017QQcategoryZ4664QQcmdZViewItem" rel="noopener nofollow ugc">auction</a> which &hellip;

Hi, I’m about to be (attempting) to build a <a href="https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/FAQ/equipment/proton-pack" class="sitemap-autolink sitemap-autolink-content" data-sitemap-autolink="true" data-autolink-type="content" data-autolink-term="proton pack" data-autolink-id="590">proton pack</a> and I want to use Stefan’s plans. I was just wondering, are his plans drawn to scale? Like, if I need to make the pack slightly larger or slightly bigger, can I just print his plans to the proper size and take measurements from the print outs?&hellip;
