the tool's name is chopping saw..u can get it from most hardware shop..like ace..some hypermarket oso selling it..like tesco n jusco..take a look at hardware section..

This post has been edited by renesisx: Apr 16 2009, 01:53 AM

yup,can get it from hardware shop. but is not easy to use n need to touch up the arcylic after finish.

oic,thanks for the info,bro,this choping saw can be use in cutting metal?? i mean like side panel??

from my experience, NO.but Allngap use it to cut metal,of coz it is very hard to cut.
it just can cut acrylic n alu oni.

oic,how much the choping saw itself?? the "mata" saw only how much??

choping saw itself around rm15+ (guess oni,the choppin saw i use is my dad's),the mata rm0.80 each oni.

u can use to cut the sidepanel..but its more efisien if u use jigsaw to cut it..it bcoz if u use choping saw, u need to get the long curve type..if normal one it cant let u cut the whole sidepanel..1 more thing u need to find metal blade..perhaps u can differentiate between metal and wood blade

oic,thanks bro

Added on April 16, 2009, 3:10 pmhehe,isee,thanks for the guide,bro,i will ask the ace shop to give me the metal blade one,hehe

any shop provide laser cutting around klang?

great DIY
if able to get UV's Acrylic, u can start ur business haha

yalor,u know kl which part got sell uv arcylic ar ??
lyn got 2 person seling.

i am not sure... last time i heard that jalan pasar that got some shop selling...

but i never managed to find them

veli veli nais... after get my acrylic casing then must think abt this kinda grill...

there's 1 booth in midvalley selling this kind of saw..called magic saw if not mistaken..can cut anything..anyshape..quite nice..

haha!! i saw that magic saw...kinda interesting but dare not get it..
scared get conned ><

those saw are not able to cut the lanparty grill like lun done it...

you need to get the one which the mata/bit is like a wire... thin one, like the previous picture. thicker one or saw bit are not able to cut the find area....

those magic saw is good for cutting anything but not small area...

i also saw b4 at midvalley. tat 1 is multipurpose,can cut many thing with any angle. the mata is very hard.
diff with choppin saw.

Added on April 17, 2009, 1:17 pmyup,the magic saw is not suitable for tis project.

This post has been edited by lun1986: Apr 17 2009, 01:17 PM

tool using wire..is something like the tool that is used to cut styrofoam
the wire is then heated up siao siao haha

This post has been edited by Jinster: Apr 17 2009, 01:46 PM

this chopping saw wire is not heated up....

it able to saw thru thing... dun use the styrofoam cutter to cut those

walaweyh
how do u do that??!
tell me step by step lol

sand paper ... 800grit, then 1000 grit, then 2000 grit .. then use polishing compound ... 1-2hour work

can use shortcut ... just place the damm polishing compound on a drill with wool extension ... 5 min work

yeah,tat's the way, aha aha~~
i use 1500 sand paper oni,so no mirror effect.

that is good anyway... anything above 800 have little effect according to internet

best if use 2000 sand paper

Just only realise this... lol nice work but abit cacat on the hole...
Mind doing one for me? Must be free lol

This post has been edited by Virgle: Apr 18 2009, 03:12 AM

me giving example lol!!
i'm not actually saying that..that tool can be used @.@

got cacat 1,how can giv to u. ....
i teach u how to do,then u also can custom make for urself.

Just for u oni

Attached image(s)

i like the lan party mor...


hmm... that cant be cutted... maybe the word death will be nicer

yea haha
lanparty is nicer =P

anyway..how about if u join those with 2 words together..

not as in straight but diagonally upwards/downwards..

besides that...u could also put like hmm
Gigabyte
Asus
CoolerMaster
LianLi
ThermalTake
SilverStone
MSI
DFI

hahaha
good idea also wor..use those words as the fan grill =P

This post has been edited by Jinster: Apr 18 2009, 10:43 AM

nice idea...

maybe can try that

plannin do a fan grill to put on 2pcs 120mm fan for my gemin II

bro u use wat software to design

flexi sign,software for advertising company.
use AI or photoshop also ok de,but i dunno how to use

This post has been edited by lun1986: Apr 18 2009, 12:54 PM

ic..it wud be nice if u can use AI..will use AI to design the word

still dun familiar with ai

um, may i ask what u all mean by "ai"?
i know artificial intelligence only

Adobe Illustrator

nice work there, but should improve to cut the every shape of arcylic

yup,i'm improving

after perfect d..do me 1 also ah..can?

here's a few that i designed haha...
try doing those =P







This post has been edited by Jinster: Apr 19 2009, 12:26 AM

the lowyat one should be nice

the rest liek asus also not bad... i like the 2 most

just imagine it without the black lines lol...
most probably aluminium or acrylic are the materials to be used...
the lines are just to show how it would look like =P

but i doubt there would be designs like these in the market..
i saw skull head...dragon..."girl figure"
less with words..
maybe this could be something new haha

last time i saw 1 website that have all those custom design grill...

wait let me find it out...

here it goes

This post has been edited by lun1986: Apr 20 2009, 05:53 PM

me too.. i'm a LP user too ..need 80mm for 2 KAKAKA ....

walau,so many ppl interested ar ~

well it does look great and not everyone has it haha

count me in too ya~

kk

I will support you if you start a business but make sure it wont cost a bomb la. Try doing it with color acrylic, it would be much more nicer. Count me in!

sure !

lun, you got skill and i think you should buy scroll saw to make that kind of art beautifully..no need laser cutter..
rm10/piece and ~40 persons order from you already cover the cost of buying the saw..and then more order..ah..manyak untung...

scroll saw 400 onii??

1st time saw tis kind tools,thank for sharing.


laser cut hav a shine edge. using either chooping saw or scroll saw also need to sandin the edge.summore handmake thing,too slow.

wow..the tool looks damn nice!! hahaha
very futuristic look

that depends on the brand..roughly it will cost you around rm300-500..but if you buy the dremel,it wil cost you arm and leg

ah again..you dont need laser cutter for the shining edge aka non-frosted look..just use a blow torch (not your regular gas stove ok) to smooth out the cut area..use the torch slowly and make sure dont melt it until it ruins your acrylic..it's the easiest way than sanding..

but personally i like the frosted edges on the acrylic..

ya... i know scroll saw... but rm400 for a scroll saw...

i use tis to make the edge shine ~


but must sand 1st,oni can get soomth edge.

hoho... nice tools there

a guide for everyone.

wa nicee

thanx for the share! haha

u're welcome

after polish can see ur nokia N95 phone... very clear and clean...lol..ahahha

lol,if sand with 2000 can c my face too
