thanks @Jason i previous quoted that it will be a kitchen utensil of sorts - so the amount of pressure would be equivalent to that of a pizza...
@JBC i should clarify that 2 decades of design equate to architecture, civil engineering, interior design & furniture design. :D product design...
thanks @DavidF. by any chance could you recommend a company that would provide this process - meaning all in one - die cast / debur / shot peen?...
maybe cast iron is the answer? ductility is not a criteria.
this this is correct - as i have intentionally cropped much of the design for this reason. i may be new to metal casting - but i have been in...
so wait - are you meaning that i could provide a manufacture an injection mould that could be utilized for casting the metal part?
cast iron or aluminium. are these more affordable than say brass or bronze?
Indeed. Well the part doesn't necessarily need to be steel I gather then. In considering casting in either brass ot bronze - what finishes can I...
so thanks everybody for their posts on this. :D it seems the best route for this design is to skip machining altogether - as those radius...
@crazybillybob so this process of tumbling the part - i think that would be the most viable and rational solution for this. if i were to reach...
@crazybillybob indeed - the more i review these posts - the more i realize how unnecessary the machining is actually needed.
@dennis fortunately, this will in no way potentially harm/kill the user. maybe i just need the skip the machining altogether!
@DavidF i am assuming a standard steel (stainless/carbon). not interested in plastic for this part.
i have a design (metal part of a handle) that will be attached to wood. in iceland - we have only 2 foundries - and they only sand cast. i was...
firstly - before i begin - i should make clear i have no experience in metal casting. i used to be a welder about 20 years ago - but that's about...
good day - i reached out out to this site to learn more about lost wax casting and sand casting. i was a welder about 20 years back and have...
