We needed a full set of gaskets for this chainsaw restoration and Amy came through with a tool she had already bought for a different purpose!

Another great idea for gaskets is to scam them with a scanner/copier machine and then transfer that scanned gasket image to the program to adjust. Laying a flat ruler in the with the scanned gasket allows you to adjust the image for a perfect fit every time. And I use a LASER Engraver to cut out gaskets. Been doing that for years. And if you don't have the old gasket or it is beyond anything usable (in pieces), you can lay the actual item on the scanner and get the layout that way as well. Works for me!

If you know the dots-per-inch resolution at which the image is scanned, there is no need for also scanning a ruler. Dimensions can be calculated directly from the raster image.

@KiltedMusician 5 жыл бұрын

I too have noticed this machine’s usefulness. I plan on using my wife’s Silhouette Cameo II for making silicone flapper valves for bagpipes. Put wax paper down, spread 100% silicone onto it, place cardboard spacers on each side, another sheet of wax paper on top, rolling pin to flatten the silicone out to the cardboard thickness, then let dry. Now you’ve got a uniform sheet of silicone to put in the cutter. It doesn’t release as well as you’d think though so you have to use a heat gun or blow drier to soften the wax when you remove the paper. The heat certainly won’t hurt the silicone.

Really old Laserjet 4L can print on paperboard since it feeds it from the front to the back without bending it, might be able to print onto the gasket material directly. They are very old and often need a gear replaced inside, though. Scan the old gasket, try a bit until you figured out the scale factor and print.

In the past if I had a good but stiff/old gasket I would lay it over new material and then lightly spray paint over which gives me a perfect pattern to cut out the new one from. I missed somewhere in this where you actually got the pattern into the computer- did you have a scanner or draw those or what, because that looks like it's past most people's abilities.

It may be difficult to get your photos to be completely straight-on sometimes. In those situations, along with your ruler that you use as a reference, you can add some known-circular item (a quarter, a dime, w/e) and then as your first step in your graphic design program, you can use that shape to correct for the perspective for the camera, taking care of whatever keystone error you may have introduced by mistake. Some rulers are actually made with circles of known size on them, exactly for this purpose, for taking evidence photos in the field.
