Thread: Worm drawings for skip

I'll get the head and tail on it as soon as I remember how to work 3d autocad

Been years since I played with AutoCAD but getting the hang of it again. getting closer snake?

Those bumpy bodies remind me of these that Snake River used to make.

Looking good you’re getting closer and closer

We still have those in a few colors but the bodies got so expensive yes I had to import them

I have to figure out some 3d stuff to get the tails to where I can draw them correctly and merge the section from the body to the tail smoother. I didn't work a lot in 3d but I'll figure it out. Once I get there I can send you the file and you can give it to someone who can CNC it out for you. Or I get rich and buy my own CNC machine.

Can't believe how much I remember from 20 or more years ago.

Hey yes we got the machining part all figured out already If we have a mold made we will make sure that you get a couple thousand.

Take one of the drawing I posted and tell me what you want changed. I have to modify things a little anyway as the one I drew is 2.5 inches. Gotta cut that half inch off, probably modify the nubs a little and fix the wonky tail. I can't figure out how to get tail to taper down yet.

I love using CAD and I might just have to take a college course or two to get caught up on working in 3d.
