Signed, Half of the Soon-To-Be-Tampa-Bound Hydrodynamic Duo đ Marcus, IBEX usually is not open to the general public is it ? A laser scanalyzer sounds like a must have tool for any high performance prop shop to blueprint and or to reproduce a kick but prop that they lab finished may make my no two props are exactly the same theory obsolete . Would be cool if your lab finished , blueprinted kick but custom cut prop is introduced to a non liquid piece of material and you say you need to have another one built đ COOL !   Joe R 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky Monkey Posted September 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 Thank you, Joe, Dave, ifi, and Dino!!!!!! đ You guys ROCK!!!!!!!!!đ€đ  đ   Actually, Joe, this is a device Steve and I have wanted for many, many years. Even though we have five Hale MRIs, several Blade Runners, and even a couple o' Runquist manual gauges, they're all like so many measuring devices in our industry, they lack the precision and, more importantly, the consistency and repeatability that we ab-so-lute-ly HAVE to have in the manufacturing business. Over the years, we've paid companies to design and build such a device, but they were unable, and in some cases, unwilling, to consumate the deal. The good news is we found one company who was willing to work with us in designing and building exactly what we wanted. Granted, it seems to have taken FOREVER, but we finally have our dream machine, an automated, laser-based prop analyzer. Anyway, we'll be "introing" it at IBEX, and although, yes, technically, it will be for sale to any shop, or manufacturer, who would like one, in truth, we built it for our own use, so selling them really isn't our focus. To have multiple machines that read the same at every station and at every facility by simply pushing a button is a game changer for us. We're reeeeeally JAZZED!!!!!!!đđđđ I will wish you all, as Marko from Trapoja in the movie, Taken, said, "Goo-lock."  đ Signed, The Scanalyzin' Half of the Hydrodynamic Duo đ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FROZEN Posted September 14, 2019 Report Share Posted September 14, 2019 Marcus, If a prop shop purchases your scanning equipment, will that give them access to your design data? ie pitches, rakes, thickness, etc. so they can duplicate the original as built/ machined condition?
