I did a search but came up dry. If you have links it would be appreciated as I won’t post mine if the earlier ones are better than mine.
Nice, I like your design. I just happen to make a pair a week or so ago. They are not the greatest (pivot points too loose) so I would love to see other ideas.
I just posted these in the free plans area. This is why I always try to work in Fusion 360, I had to mess with the hole size myself but by using a parameter they all updated at once!
Beautiful!
It was either @jkopel or @henryhbk I think who made them. Don’t think they used the same name for them though.
I downloaded the files at the time but would have to dig around to find them.
There are these but they are not the same thing.
Edit: well crap, now I’m going to have to make some even parts dividers to go with the golden ration set.
Very cool looking calipers! (slightly “War of the Worlds”.)
Memory isn’t what it used to be
Right there with you bro.
Nice calipers, and some even part dividers would be pretty good too!
“First I put the PDF into Inkscape, did some tracing”, I hope you used Trace Bitmap in Inkscape. Nice Project!
Oh, I wish! I don’t know what was with that PDF, wouldn’t even open in Fusion 360, wouldn’t trace in Inkscape. Had to literally trace it out using the bezier tool then I put that relatively poor SVG into Fusion where I could clean things up nicely, then back to Inkscape for color codeing .
That was an epic topic. It is what got me hooked on Onshape. I made a chipboard copy of it, but never got around to the acrylic one.
Interesting to hear others workflow. Thanks
To be fair, I usually start in Fusion 360 but this particular project forced me to go back and forth.
I’ve been doing, Photoshop: export to SVG, then Inkscape with good results, for me anyway.
Yes, exactly, I mentioned it in the free plans post but failed to here.
Well after you have the file worked up! That is why I shared my iteration; not everyone should have to spend hours perfecting the file. Spend that time perfecting something else and share it.
Oh, I like what you have done with it!
