It’s been sort of slow at work lately so I’ve been playing around making 3D models of parts I’d like to machine.
Yesterday and today I’ve been working on a restraining bolt. From what I understand the originals were machined replicas of a movie camera lens, so they are not exactly like the lens in detail. It is also my understanding that the exact model lens has not been found.
Pictures of a real lens (that looks really close) show two raised fins inside. Screenshots of the bolts looks like there is only one fin. I wanted to ask if anyone has better reference on which is more accurate and/or if there is a preference between the two designs?
This is still a work in progress so please give any suggestions to make it better.
