Re: Our Fall 2015 Sine Plate Project

Well, those oddball angles came out of CAD simply because it let us put a brace between two odd points on the chassis. We really didn't attempt to cut it that precisely. It was kind a joke when those angles came out. I think we left the brace until last and determined we didn't really need it.

But it pointed out that we needed a way to cut angles without disturbing the vise all the time. That was another lesson, that as soon as you get the vise lined back up dead on, somebody needs to cut another angle.
