  • The Walmart special Ozark Trail 7.5-inch Folding Knife is blowing up the internet, but the scales are ugly and a little bit slippery. Worst still (if you are a south paw) there is no option for a left hand pocket clip. Let's fix these issues starting in Rhinoceros 3D (Rhino8) CAD before 3D printing and Laser Cutting.

    Great video! Thank you. A new rainy day project. Much like the print of the blade balancer. I made one of them for my neighbor also. Thanks again.

    I never would have purchased this knife because of the orange scales. Even though I’ve been repeatedly inspired by you to attempt CAD I have not been able to really figure it out. Looking forward to printing the files you’ve made though, your stuff is always top notch. Thanks for the video, I’ll be on the lookout for this knife on my Wally World trips now.

    Two Rhino commands you should check out. Extract UV should give you the flat pattern from a curved surface. The other command is slash, it allows you to adjust iso curves to better follow the surface.

      Thanks Im not a Rhino user but it's available in Blender. This is what's needed probably to do hydroforming.

    you beat me to the punch by a week!
    i was just about to throw those scales into Fusion 360 and sketch up the first scales for this knife on the Internet... until i checked thingiverse and found your post.
    also, great design! I've been using fusion 360 as a CAD starter platform... one day I'll jump ship into Freecad to be unburdened by corporate interests... anyway, watching your workflow in Rhino really twisted my brain up - it took me a year and a half to wrap my head around the process of parametric modeling from scratch. it was very interesting to see such a fundamentally different approach to CAD modeling.

    This is a good video. Id seen one thumbnail on a video comparing to a Bench Made. Ozark Trail made another thing that is really good. It's an inflatable stadium cushion. The material it was made from was a really resilient plastic. I wanted to see them make a full sleeping mat. I've owned two "high quality" 60-80$ inflatable camping pads and both of them leaked. If Ozark Trail would make an inflatable sleeping pad with the same material and design as they're stadium seat it would be the ultimate low cost, light weight, compact, and durable mattress.

    Content like this is where your competency is, it is what sets you apart from others. Your rants about this or that, other people can rant better so leave it up to them to do it. Please do more design content.

      Dude! I am 100% on your side. I want to make this stuff all day everyday. Look at the view count. It's been a week and it's got a thousand views. A month ago I got 200,000 views. The system is rigged. This isn't some impersonal algorithm. There human beings doing this to punish me. So you want me to stay silent about the Injustice? It doesn't matter anyway because you won't even see this to respond to it.
      TH-cam has 112,000 employees. Telegram has 30 employees what do 111,970 people do at TH-cam? Why doesn't TH-cam? Let me click on a user and see their comment history?
      I can't keep making content like this if I don't get rewarded with views. They are trying to kill my channel. So you want me to keep providing the value that I want to keep providing but when I cry foul you want me to shut up?

      ​This particular video deserves alot more views than it has gotten so far.
      I Just watched it while eating my dinner and i was thoroughly engrossed, particularly by the rhino cad sections as im a long time NX/CREO/Solid Edge user and its a great insight to the other side of CAD
      its funny because just this week i have been researching benchtop lasers and benchtop waterjet cutters for our lab in work! i want to cut thin steel and aluminium sheet though.

      Definitely watch the last video I made about the laser cutter. Also, some guy here on YT is cutting Metal with a 70W diode laser. ~.5mm thick.

    D2 Steel has only 1,4 - 1,6 % of carbon, so it's just a regular cheap stainless steel.
    But really interesting video as always, if I were you, I would try a deep engraving in a 3d printed plastic part.

  • @hurzelgnurk

    Calling D2 the best steel for knives is close to a crime. D2 is at best mediocre, at the very least since 1990. Even in its cpm variant it is not something I'd recommend. If you are looking for the "best" steel right now you should take a look at magnacut and Larrin Thomas in general.

    Have you seen the Nathan Builds Robots video on what carbon fiber filament does to your hands?

      @DesignPrototypeTest  13 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Yes. The horror show is only because of the magnification. Those tiny slivers can't penetrate that deeply into your skin. As someone who has worked construction for a living and destroyed his body before I'm not very concerned.

    Yep! I was just about to comment about using a flatbed scanner as a poor man's digitizer. Admittedly , I had a lot of frustrations last i tried it. 😅 (problem was the scanner light shines up at an angle and casts shadows and occlusions over holes and walls)
