    Default Crappie Carrot Mold Help


    I'm at it once again... I'm making another mold from a CNC at my school shop, but I'm in need of help.

    In order to make the program flawless, I'm asking anyone that has a Crappie Carrot mold if they can take a picture of it head on.

    I know, "That's copying someone else's work!" And I understand that, but I'm in need to practicing code and tool path writing to run a program, and what better use there is to make a mold to practice on.

    I appreciate anyone that can help. Thank you!

    You should ask on the soft plastic forum. I don't have that mold but some do.

    i found an image that I can make a negative with and will work, but it needs some fixing. I'm turning into a 6 cavity with 2 cavities being the same size. 2.5" - 2.0" - 1.75" or 1.5".

    UPDATE:

    I finally started on the mold using MasterCam (in a nutshell, made me want to hang myself. Lmao) but it is a work in progress. Tuesday I'll hop back on it and hopefully my aluminum stock arrives. One step closer!

    The size of the baits are 2.000" 1.500" 1.250" and 1.000" (down to the Thousandth). I'll post pictures when completed.
