    Wow, they turned out great. The time line did get a little tight, with me traveling and having to do my real job.

    2D CAD is pretty easy, its all lines, arcs, and circles tied together to make a design. CAD makes it easy to draw to scale. I am not sure if TurboCAD can save in DXF format, but that was what was required. If you were just making a template for yourself to print out and use, TurboCAD would be great (scales too).

    3D is a different story. This is my Tactical Punisher Design, based on the "Purist" I received from Robert Williams.

    I can't wait to see these shave ready.

    That is a most impressive drawing. Someday we will be able to design anything we want, and "print" it out as a sort of electrolytically-milled hologram in hardened steel. I hope I am still young enough to care.

    Turbocad Designer 18 can both open and save in DXF format, but I would check up on any earlier version. On opening a DWG drawing and saving as DXF, a warning appears that it may not save all Turbocad features. But on a cursory trial I can't see which, and I think it may only apply to some that aren't needed for simple 2D work.

    I want a tactical punisher... May be better served as a weapon than a shaving implement, but still

    You can already '3D print' in metal using direct metal laser sintering - I suggest checking it out on YouTube - it's the manufacturing of the future!

    Hi,

    What are the blade thicknesses for the razors here:

    I can measure with my calipers tomorrow night, but I believe they are 0.280" or 0.300". I'll measure tomorrow when I get home.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the quick response. Did you make further progress(grinding etc.) on them? Btw, your message box is full.
    Thanks.
