Fredrik’s Straddle Carrier B Testimonial! (USA)

Fredrik sent me off some pictures of his latest build, an awesome Straddle Carrier B which I designed a while back. I’ve built this model twice myself and plan on doing one with the Trotec soon enough.

Howdy…  Took a while to build but I figure I’ll send you a picture of the Straddle Carrier, I also included one that has my CNC in the background… This was a great build, thanks again for the model…  /Fredrik

This is actually the second version of this model, the first used all round wooden dowels but I soon discovered that they are incredibly inconsistent in diameter and a pain to sand down even hooked-up to a drill so that was among the first to be “upgraded” to have all the guide pegs cut at the same time as the rest of the model and the rest is history!

You can find this model and a bunch more at CNCKing.com – below is a video I made a while back of me cutting this model with my ShopBot Desktop. Let’s go through a major time warp to see the evolution of this model!
