      Very nice job. I'm curious: How did you model the ball-and-claw feet?

      I cheated.

    • Ball and claw foot desk

      Hi all, it's been a while since I contributed any content.
      Like everything I do, I could have added more detail. I've seen many of these desks. My Grandfather owned one. I've got the one my Mother had, and I modeled it from that.
      A big thanks to Dave R I was ready to tear my hair out trying to get the tape measure tool to scale correctly, and I have little hair left to tear out.

      It's been so long since I posted here that I've probably didn't do it correctly.
      Oh well! Happy new year all!!

      Cool cup design, but I just don't see that stacking ability. Very nice job on the dinette table.

    • RE: I Found an Old Model

      There is something to be said for simplicity. I'm currently watching a thread debating the size of pocket screw holes, really?

      Thanks, l i am. You're right that the model looks fatter than the original, but when I measure the width it comes out right. Go figure.

      Camera perspective perhaps?

      Looks great though!

    • RE: 1940 Seeburg Jukebox

      Thank you all for the complements! I got a bit carried away with the detail, but it was fun to do. I started at the bottom of the model and realized about half way into it I should have done the beaded front corners first, oh well.

      Yes, Dave it was a fascinating museum! The Kissels were my favorites, especially as they were manufactured right there in Hartford. The "Suicide Seat" would have been a fun ride, who needs seat-belts! On second thought, in 1973, I remember I and about twenty others riding on a car around the Watkins Glen race track during "Summer Jam 73". I'd have felt safer in the "Mother-in -laws" seat.

    • 1940 Seeburg Jukebox

      My internet was down for a few days, so I took the time to model this jukebox I took a picture of at the Wisconsin Automobile Museum.

      I did a lot of guessing, but I was pleased with the outcome.

      I'm fairly sure L i am was kidding. I only wish I could render that well.

    • More older stuff

      In that, I milled most everything but the ply-wood used, I guess this is "woodworking".
      I modeled and built this from a concept sketch. I've revised the original model to reflect the "as-built" state.

      The walls, ceiling, and floor were 1/4 inch steel welded in place, so every attachment point was drilled and tapped.

      The two back panels on the right and left are mounted on cantilevered slides to access and hide my client's full-automatic guns.

      Because the man had both double-barrel and single barrel rifles, I designed some upper receivers that are mounted using magnets, so the guns could be positioned as he wished.

      Most of the arrangement was done by me, but my cockatoo was in there last night and helped, she grabs and pulls on anything within reach.

    • New old stuff

      It's been a while since I posted anything. While nowhere near six-hundred models I think this might be my forty-eighth or so. This is my bathroom vanity, most of it was made from a 12/4 oak beam that was no longer supporting anything in my building and a sheet or so of plywood. Nothing spectacular, but it's served well for the last eight years or so. Modeled and built the medicine cabinets also.

      LOL, ten tries until I realized my images were over 1600 pixels, live and learn.

    • RE: An A.H. Reid drill/driver

      Okay, I got the solution! After adding some lubricant to the coved upper knob it allows the outer shaft to spin on the upstroke, letting the bit stay in whatever you were driving.

    • RE: An A.H. Reid drill/driver

      @DaveR, the top knob is attached to the outer shaft and creates the rotation of the inner spiral shaft, the bottom "grip" has a bushing and does freely rotate. The secondary knob on the top freely rotates also, that's the one I wonder what its purpose was for.
