I thought I would introduce my newest project (with my first post), a titanium mechanical pencil:
I use a mechanical pencil everyday and I thought it would be interesting to document a build using video. I'm hoping it will be an educational video series, I will certainly be learning a lot and I hope others will be able to learn a few things from what I learn. It will be a full build, from start to finish. Currently I only have a few sketches for the mechanism. I'll be designing it in Autodesk's Fusion and I will release the CAD as I go. Once I get going I'll post the link for the CAD here, and on my blog as well.
I'll try to keep this thread updated as well once I get going.

It took me a lot longer than I was planning to get at this project for a number of reasons (including a fully unplanned dragging of a Schaublin 102 and a 6" surface grinder home), but here is, finally, episode 1:
Episode 2 will be posted much quicker!
Edit: Here is the direct link as well just in case the video doesn't directly show up in the forum.

Very cool. I will watch the video when I have a bit more time!

Grrrrrrr :doh: :doh: Firefox said I needed to update Adobe Flash Player. Did that and now cannot see the Video. BUT if I use I-Explorer, yep I can. Shut down and re-open F/Fox and still no go. Ah, Well.
Sigh!
Anyway, looks like you have an interesting - fiddly project to keep you and us amused.

Edit: Well here it is about an hour later and on my desktop PC that also uses F/Fox and all is working fine. Laptop was the previous machine whilst sitting in the recliner rocker. Blankety Blank computers.

I'm not getting the movie, just a big empty space!
If I right click in that empty space I get a window that says 'movie not loaded'. The same thing happens on Doc's thread.

The link works for me Pete.

Yes working here - (Win7 32 bit and Google Chrome)

Yup.
Me too Pete. I got the same message on my Laptop but as I said, worked fine on the desktop. Only difference I am aware of is that the Laptop is Win XP, Desktop, Win 7. Both run Fire-Fox of same build AFAIK. (As Far As I Know)
