    Ha! I had a hunch you were a local grom. I look forward to your contributions to bitchen. 😎
    I once used a white oak plank from an aquarium canopy. Left the brass piano hinge on for extra slack points. 😏. We took it to backside of Blacks and fought for who got to use it next. No flex flexin 🤣🤣🤣.

    I have been metal casting for years. I got into lost foam casting a while ago, making the foam blanks with a cnc router I built. The results have been pretty amazing.

    • @SammSheperd
      @SammSheperd  7 лет назад

      If you can CNC the shape, why not just machine the aluminum? Unless you don't have appropriately sized raw materials, or your machine isn't good at it. Anyway that sounds cool! I need to get myself some better sand or investment.

      +Samm Sheperd (SNRS) Hi Samm. It boiled down to, material thickness, degree of difficulty of the component machining time involved. I spent hours machining up single parts which can be cnc'd at much higher speeds and deeper passes with good dense foam, also you can make several dimensions to a part, glue them together and cast the final as one component with a very high degree of detail. Mercury marine make their engines using this method. You can even see the polystyrene foam detail in their castings. I think you are the type of person with the skill set that can benefit from these different applications.
      Regards, Simon.

    Hey Samm. I only just started watching you but your projects are really catching my interest. Could you make a video showing how you create those compound curves in a design program? I have been a machinist for a couple years and have only been able to pick up the bare minimum of 3D cad programs (the basic block out then extrude shapes, and then all the cam stuff out there) I find it mind boggling how you are able to create these flowing designs accurately and I cannot wrap my head around how you do it.

    time for an electric long board. also you 3d print and you smelt aluminum. how about loss PLA casting. I've tried it and it works pretty well

    • @SammSheperd
      @SammSheperd  7 лет назад +1

      Yea I've been wanting to do that. Now that the weather is lifting I'm excited! I've already printed a youtube play button :p

    • @backpocket718
      @backpocket718 7 лет назад

      Samm Sheperd awesome. cannot wait. just found your channel and your videos are great. I've done a little work with smelting and tried a loss PLA casting about 3 years ago with about 90% success. the failure was because I used greensand for my mold and should have used a sand and plaster mix for a hard mold. I plan to try again soon. I bought a cheap electric skateboard online and it's great but I'd love to make one that can go off roading as my board only works well with smooth concrete. I have a kit for a CNC coming in about a week I might exsperiment with making my own board. later this year I've got a glowforge laser cutter coming in and I wanna attempt a cardboard surfboard. look it up they are awesome. anyhow your videos are awesome keep it up.

    what's the difference between a longboard and a regular skateboard? sorry for the newbie question

    • @SammSheperd
      @SammSheperd  8 лет назад +1

      +Ji-Sung Ko generally skateboards are thought of as the 'trick decks' used in skateparks, with the tiny hard wheels and such. longboards are much more diverse and besides usually being longer, they often have larger, softer wheels and have a laid back, smooth, cruise kind of feel. Though I think it's fine to call them skateboards.

    • @TheTeddyWG
      @TheTeddyWG 8 лет назад

      +Samm Sheperd (SNRS) interesting. so are skateboards better built for doing tricks, and longboards for mobility? again sorry if this is an amateurish question

    • @SammSheperd
      @SammSheperd  8 лет назад

      Ji-Sung Ko Yes you're exactly right.

    Were you limited by the size of the CNC router you were using?

    • @SammSheperd
      @SammSheperd  8 лет назад

      The router I was using could have accommodated the full scale version. I would have needed to machine rotated 90º

    • @johnhunt2390
      @johnhunt2390 8 лет назад

      OK. I have access to a 4' x 8' CNC router. If you were limited by the size of the machine, I was going to offer to help you make it full-size. How much spindle time did it take to make your half-sized mold?

    • @SammSheperd
      @SammSheperd  8 лет назад

      Hah that was over an hour of machine time. I don't have access to that machine anymore.

    • @johnhunt2390
