Hi to all,
for this week assignment, I made a slot car circuit, using a 2440x1220mm MDF
table and by milling it.
I made the
design of the two tracks, with one thing in mind, to make two tracks with the
same length, also I want to have two different surfaces, a smooth one, and a
tarmac one, so for the tarmac or urban zone, I design zones with a lot of
squares trying to simulate rock flooring.
I use two
different tools, one for the tracks and another different one for the rock
flooring. For the tracks I use a two edge 3mm mill, the tracks may have a deep
of about 6/8mm, and for the rock flooring simulate I use a 90 degrees 20mm
mill, I mill with it 2mm deep to get rock flooring surface.
Here you
can see photo of the final circuit and another one in with you can see a detail
of the rock flooring zone and how the tracks are not parallels as on the
commercial parts formed slot circuits, by milling you can build your tracks
totally customized.
If anyone
can make a similar circuit you can download the DXF file bellow:
