Making gun grip checkering

[Anonymous]

Hello.

I making gun grip for toy now.

I want make SIG P220 grip like.

But, I am stuck in making grip checkering to solid body.

I don’t know what to do.

Help me.

Perhaps those videos might help you:

BTW: Knurling might the keyword for your (re-)search.

Thanks! 

It was very helpful.

But...it will only work on CAM workspace?

I want make same knurling on Model workspace.

@tasukuwat: You can do it in the model environment, but things might get slow very quickly because the number of faces that have to be recalculated do increase a lot. That's how I would do it (I haven't prepared anything for the cast so what ever you see might be a bit clunky):

And here is the design so you can play around with it:

Ummm...It's seems to knurling in CAM is better than model workspace.

I'll try CAM mode.

Thanks a lot.

Ill guess this is a good decision.

Are you sure you want to go that way, saving as STL, Yuk.  Not for me. 

Only saving grace is the flat sided outcome.

Two straight sweeps, and a third for the bounding line, bit or work, but better than STL.

My 2 cents....

@davebYYPCU: Valid 2 cents. I'm 3d printing things. And this would be a kind of post processing step and would be fine for me. But it wouldn't be visible in e.g. renderings. What's so bad about stls?

Manipulation of mesh bodies in Fusion is less than brilliant,  fine in Meshmixer.

I am also thinking, taking the model to Cam, Lars did not mention saving out the model after cutting, only the stock after / in simulation, could be a long way round to the end result.

I did say that the flat faces in knurling would be one reason to put up with it.  

I also concede, the end result going to a printer has to be stl.

The loss of edges, and crisp definitions, same body exported with Fusion settings (high definition is my default), and inserted.

I didn't know, until now, but you cant add appearances to mesh models, I had intended to colour them the same with a wood grain.

This file is what I was talking about.

If someone comes up with a cool idea please use this.

In short,

CAM knurling is easy way,but Only on STL.

If I import these STL files to other design, may I lose edges on grip.

Did I say it right?

My uploaded file has some trouble.

This is repaired file.

It may work.

I have this version done,

Normal to have grips screwed onto chassis.

Hello, is it possible for me to get a 220 grip design? I really need it, please

It was a mock up, don't know if size and or fit will be of use.

Might help....
