Bellows Holder

All photos.

Back in the lab today after some travel out west.

Previously I designed a bellows holder to keep the high voltage feedthrough from moving.

I received the part and installed it successfully today:

A real win using 3D metal printing.





BRL-CAD / STL Progress

30 05 2009

Shout out to Michael Davis. He read about my BRL-CAD STL problems and suggested I use combinations instead of regions. This largely fixed my STL export issues, and the export is generally much faster. I still have to check that a service bureau can use the STL files produced. Here is a render of the STL output:

chassis_STL2

You can see the faceting produced by the chosen resolution. Looks like we are back in business with designing and producing Polywell cores.
