Either way mate a box is a box to me at the moment, I guess you'll have to wait and see what the prices come back like before committing to a design.


Re-seating the idlers in their bosses, is that the old superglue trick?, I haven't tried it myself as mine are oval so was doubtful it would work. What do you reckon?. Also what do you class as round the corner?, just previously fabs hoped for before the first round of the uk national, and we all know what round it is now.

Either way I'm glad I can see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel, can't wait to run it again.

Yes the superglue trick.. as i had my gearbox apart i thought i may as well do it... Idler shafts are a real tight fit and once put back together it was really free

Round the corner... as in ive seen a pic of the nearly finished gearboxes in production! They are looking very nice..

Are you at the Oz National this weekend?? fI so come over and say hello, whats your name by the way?

Thumbs up Praying

Round the corner from me is a road..... a long road......so I hope Fabs lives in a cul de sac, or a close...

Do you know if he has changed plastics or modded the formula at all, to cut out the over heatin issues?

well!

we're few guys who like to see pics too!
unfortunetly it's seem to be not important that we saw this. or to know others details like "when", "how much" and "how many".

so, i've just called the 'factory' : the boss calculate prices on monday morning...
other news :
a french owner is making CAO (cao in french, in english i'm not sure. it mean "computing draw conception") plans.
so it's able that we'll paid only for the material & CNC machining. if it's working, it will deacrease the final price of course.

bye!

p.s :
vids about one of the equipement they're using in this 'factory' (3D "prototyping") :

hi!

new episode of "lost in transmission"

by my side, no response yet. but i know the're busy (but/and they're not closed in August, good thing for us... but hoppin' that's done before! ).
i'll call back tomorrow in the morning.
i continue till no "real" alternative.
perhaps Fabs will do it faster and better (and cheaper). it will be great.
but can't wait anymore (without doing anything) for something 'buyable' if no "official" news, a date, a price, some pics, etc...

bye!

p.s : 10 boxes expected

prices received :


1 pc = 585 € / pc
5 pcs = 145 € / pc
10 pcs = 92 € / pc
20 pcs = 64 € / pc
30 pcs = 54 € / pc
40 pcs = 50 € / pc
50 pcs = 46 € / pc

i've asked for details :



·1) Pour la partie « conception » fabrication du plan =coût 0 € nous utiliserons un de nos stagiaires actuellement chez nous. (free for plan conception)


·2) Pour la partie programmation et outillage (for the programing and tools) = 375 €

·3) Pour la partie mise en route ( a chaque nouvelle production ) starting product cost (for each new production) = 165 € (it mean that it's expensiver to test the first one and doing the other nine after)


·4) Pour la partie usinage pièce (machining cost) = 33 €

·5) Pour la partie matière première aluminium (material cost) = 4 €.


"Nous conservons tous les programmes et les montages pour les différentes pièces qui peuvent être relancés dans les jours, mois, années qui suivent la première fabrication."
they keep all programs and assemblages to (eventualy) product it days or years later


that's not for free at least!!!
with a friend we're thinking about paying the programming & tools part.
it means 165/10+33+4 = 53,5€/pc without postage
what are you thinking about that?

so, it's the first contact, monday i'll call an other one which is specialized in rc...

bye!

le_sam - let me know if you need any help translating into English pal.

(appel-moi si tu as besoin de quelqu'un qui peu traduire a Anglais mon pot)

Better that your customers get a correct message.

(mieux vaut les clients reçoivent un message clair)

No worries (de rien).

SO!....


you can try to translate in english, then i do my own one (work 4 U AndyG)

"j'ai contacté les deux entreprises :
l'une n'a pas la possibilité de le faire.
l'autre peut, j'attends sont devis.
demain soir je vais chez un ami qui dispose d'Autocad, voir même d'un logiciel permettant de créer directement le programme pour la machine numérique! ça serait de l'argent de gagné pour nous!
je continue à vous tenir au courant , où que cela nous mène! "

'i've contacted both firms :
one can't do this.
the other can, i'm waiting for the cost estimation.
tomorrow evening i go to a friend who has Autocad and a softwear allowed to create CNC programs! it could be interesting for the final cost!
I continue keeping posted you, wherever it leads us!

bye!
