Enigma cipher gears

[difalkner]

Nobody is posting so I thought I'd post a project -

I had a request last week to cut some Enigma cipher gears - two sets of 5 with 12", 6", and 3" gears. I also cut a drill guide for them so they could properly place the dowel axles (or spindles) I provided. One set has an anchor cut into where one spoke would be because the theme for the room is submarines. They're going to paint these and didn't want engraving on the teeth. These will be for an Escape Room. Fun job, actually, so we're going to offer these in our Etsy shop.

These sorts of projects are alot of fun. However, if you REALLY want to be ambitious, check out this project:




He does not currently sell completed sculptures, but he does sell the plans for individual (hobby) use. He does an excellent job with the instructions and the models for CNC use. Also look for his latest called "Carapace"

They reached out to me, Jack. And they want more gears already! They have two stores - Escape Shreveport Bossier – 60 minutes…Can you ESCAPE???

The anchor logo is cut 1/32" into the Baltic Birch and they'll paint it a contrasting color. You can see the anchor better in this photo.

I looked at all of them - really cool stuff! One of these days I may try something like that. I'm a huge Rube Goldberg fan!
