New toy.

A couple more new toys added to the workshop. The main one being a Faro CMM arm. This allows precise measuring of parts for QC or reverse engineering. Such as copying the outline of this Sako 85. We then convert the information in to a CAD model for inletting/machining. This is handy for opening up inlets for bedding etc.

Nice, we used Faro arms at "a well known luxury car manufacturer" in Cheshire to digitise clay renderings amongst other things.  It's a technology that's becoming more accessible now.

Everything is accessible for a price 🤣😅

I more use to using gantry CMM’s, so this is a little weird to use. But to have similar accuracy of a ganty CMM but with the flexibility of the arms is pretty cool.
