Hi folks.
I registered here in the hope that I could hire
someone to do a job for me. I am working on a hobby
project that requires a set of custom tools. I have
had a bitter hard time trying to get it made through
big companies with no luck in 3 weeks.
The project consists of
1: A small simple press
2: Male and Female cutting die
3: A Punching Device
4: A bending device
I am not an engineer, but I have at least put together
some 3d models and outlines of what I am trying to
achieve, but it would require the knowledge of an
engineer to turn it into a usable device
-------------------------------
What I want is a press that you could put 1mm aluminium sheet into
and when struck with a hammer, drives a cutting die through the sheet
to leave a nice clean cut out. The press then returns to its default position
and the cutout can be safely removed. See attached the press I had in mind
and also an outline of the cutting dies I need.
What I also wanted was the ability to swap out the dies for a tool that
allows the cut out to recieve 2 hole punches. After which the punch tool
can be swapped out for a bending tool that allows the cutout to recieve
an exact bend.
All of this for an item around 25x35mm in size.
I hope that made sense. I am looking for someone to make it real for me and
I have funds available now to get it started.
