EPPYak55 Post by Frank rcfc » Sun Dec 28, 2008 8:09 pm Nice 3d plane design by Leadfeather. I got this off of RCG 32.5" ws Attached files EPPYak55.zip (219.6 KB)Â
Hi, I'm still trying to figure out how to convert this and many others to google scetch "skp". Any help would be great. Thanks
Blakez , Once you download the zip file open it up, and there is a folder inside containing a few files The one that you can open in Sketchup is the one circled in read and has the extension .skp The rest are the cut files and misc files Hope this helps Mark Attached files
I am trying to redo the layout for a 11.5"x47" 3mm cellform 88 sheet. I am not having much luck, could someone help me out redoing this file. I think I'll need two sheets to fit everything. Otherwise can someone point me to where i can learn about how to make slots for the carbon fiber rods.
Did you change your safe area dimensions, and thickness in "Phlatboyz Parameters" (1st icon)? Then you just rearrange your parts and generate g code. Those green line in the sketchup file, "centerlines", will make slots for carbon fiber. Read the help file (last phlatscript icon). -Kwok
Thanks for the reply. Yes i was able to change the safe area and thickness. I just did not know what the green lines were. I should be able to figure it out now. Thanks again. Hank.
Heay I see this post has not been updated in awhile I have a copy of the yak55 I can convert over would anyone like it?
Could someone PLease point me in the right direction to redo this code to use the 18x36 9mm Epp sheets? Ive had my mk3 for 8 days and I know this shouldn't be that hard of a task... Just shoot me in the right direction and I will try to do the heavy lifting. Thanks in advance... Jeremy
Jeremy, to make changes to the setup you go to the parameter box in the SketchUcam. It's the left most box on the SketchUcam tool-bar. Under material thickness enter 9mm. Don't forget to put the 'mm' or it will end up as 9" if you are in inch mode. If you use a different bit size than the default put that in too. Almost at the bottom is the place where you put your sheet size. The default may be 44.000 in one and 22.000 in the other. Just change that to your sheet size. Press 'OK'. On your work sheet you'll see the new safe are box. Place the pieces in it and generate the code. If anything is not clear or you have more questions just ask.
