Since my cardiac incident, I have been trying to get some things easier around here for others to do, just in case.

I have been converting the program that I use from C++ to VBscript and am putting it online. When it is completed, anyone can design a custom or stock nose cone and generate the CNC file for "Julie" and a drawing for the online catalog. It will also calculate the list price, volume, and weight.

You can try it at Nose Cone Designer . It does not allow saves right now and it only works if you are logged in and are a SVDT member.

Feedback and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

I can't seem to get past the first page, regardless of the part designation I use.

WOW !!!
This should be really cool.
Another innovation from Semroc that will allow one to have a nose cone of their own design produced.

Carl-
Could you do the same thing for MOTORS we want ??
THAT would REALLY ROCK !!!

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !
Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, and HAVOC !

I love the concept, but think the current user interface is a little cludgy and not very intuitive. BMS sets the standard on this--you pick the shape, there's a clear illustration spelling out what the critical dimensions are, and you input those dimensions. Of course, it's a handwritten form, and you have to write and spell out every dimension to avoid confusion, but it's simple.

Section 1 shape? Section 2 shape? y1 dimension? Why do I have to start with a standard nose cone number if I'm creating a custom cone?

This is certainly appealing to scale geeks like me, and gives me another decent excuse to head over to semroc.com to place an order, as though I needed another one.
