Overhead Line Shaft Detail
-
Very nice work Dave
there is something particularly appealing to me about that model. -
-
Thank you gentlemen.
-
Here's a detail showing some of the screw threads. Added some color in the render.
-
The detail in your mechanical models just slays me
-
Thank you sir. Maybe it makes up for my lack of skill with rendering that you have.
-
The best renders are the ones that convey the right amount of details.
This is one of those renders where you appreciate the accuracy and level of modelling involved.
Not one where errors are disguised using texture maps etc
Cannot wait for you to animate it

Dave your rendering skills are more than “just fine”. We just generally do different types of modeling….. my craziness just allows for weirder results

Thank you Rich and Charles.
Rich, I expect I'll need to build out the shop more before I try to animate it.
-
Top notch details and illustration!
-
Thank you Bryan.
Not sure where I'll add this but I was doodling some more.
-
Spline gears! Nice!
-
This is getting better and better. I was going to say, when is the animation coming but Rich beat me to it.

Thank you.
I got a little sidetracked.
Front axle I-beam from around 1905.
And a wheel for a rail car from around 1895.
-
That's some delicious modelling in the axle. Especially the top of the neck as it tapers and bends.

Excellent modeling as always!

wunderbar Dave! -
I'm not exactly sure what this is used for but I made a model of it anyway. The handle drives the ratchet wheel which drive the pointy bit on top upward. There's a tapered squre hole on the bottom of the handle which would appear to allow the handle to sit on something. I presume the pointing bit is used to split something.
And a cut-away view showing the threads and the rachet wheel and pawl.
