Still working on it. The design is mostly finished, I just need to do some validation and some FEA and ensure that things will hold together. Then I need to get everything cut. I haven't started the teardrop design yet, but that is just a matter of a new case. The mechanism is what is important.

AIO prototype in progress. We'll see how that turns out before I submit the teardrop.

Take your time. There's a chance that it MIGHT change, and I MIGHT need logos for different calipers...

Not dead.

 

I am traveling a lot at the moment, so I haven't had two seconds next to each other where I can get any personal work done.

 

As far as I know, everything is in queue at the machine shop. Timeline is uncertain, but I'm hoping it'll come together soon.

I got a call from the machine shop. My stuff came up in queue....

 

and the price is insane.

 

I'm looking for other shops at the moment, and I'm going to rework some of the design to see if I can drop the price.

4 digits insane. Even if I ordered in bulk, it would be nearly triple the highest I'd consider charging.

 

No worries, I'll see if I can find someone willing to do it for a more reasonable price.

 

I also never thought about how to cut the blades. I'll have to go to a Home Depot and look at the key cutting machine to see what the design limitations are for that. That should be an easy fix, though.

 

Updates later.
