6 Tuba 45s

I'm trying out google pictures to post stuff, since Photo bucket went in the.. well... bucket.

It's like a fresh piece of canvas, lets make some saw dust

I'm seeing a no entry sign where a photo should be. Have you tried putting them on imgur?

[bitSmasher]

I'm not sure Google will let you embed pics drectly from Photos, but one thing to double check is if you're using the shareable URL...
otherwise, Tinypic is a handy site for sharing (but not storing) online

Oh it doesn't work?? I can see it on my main PC and my phones web browser.

Try to see it, but not when logged into the forum. I don't see the picture either.

Ok I'll try another share site.

On a positive note, eminance customer support was kind enough to send a PDF of the basket drawing for the 3012lf. Now I can draw the mounting holes spacing 1:1 in draftsight, print it and drill the mounting holes for the T nuts, without having the actual driver yet.

The driver spec sheet is perfectly accurate for the mounting hole and screws. Lay it out with a compass and a straight-edge... Probably more accurate than printing it out.

Loving that feeling... <3<3<3<3

I'll try and get more pictures up. Did the 1st one finally work?
Made progress yesterday and got all 90 pieces rough cut... Ugh that's a lot of plywood!

I see a sheet of plywood on a set of saw horses.

[J_Dunavin]

This isn't the whole pile, but most of the pieces for the T45s

[commander_dan]

Heh looks similar to the pile of panels I had when building my 6 T30s. Looking good so far

[Chris_Allen]

I can't even stack wood that tidily.

[J_Dunavin]

Ha! Normally I'm that organized either, but with trying to build DRs and a bunch of Tubas all under a time line, I'm really trying to stream line the process.
At this rate I'm going to have to have a painting party the week before the gig. Invite a bunch of guys over, get some pizza and drinks and roll some black paint.

In an effort to save time I drew the path in Draftsight and had office Max print a 1:1 copy. I cut out the important stuff and carefully lined it up on the ply wood. Then marked the plywood, took a rule and connected the dots.
I did double check the print 1st against the dimensions from the plans as well as checking some major points on the wood afterwards.
It REALLY speeds up the process and for me seems more consistent.
Not shown, but I also flipped it over and drew a line down the middle of the path, so I can easily shoot my Brad nailer on the backside, and know where the piece is.
