MILLED CLEVIS

THIS IS A CLEVIS MACHINED FOR MY UNIVERSITY'S FORMULA SAE TEAM. IT WAS A DIFFICULT PART BECAUSE THE HIGH PERCENTAGE OF MATERIAL REMOVAL FROM THE STOCK AND TALL, THIN FEATURES WHICH CREATED DIFFICULT TO CONTROL RESONANCES AND RISKED LARGE DEFORMATION FROM IMPROPER CLAMPING. I ALSO HAD TO PICK MY ORDER OF OPERATIONS CAREFULLY, SINCE THE PART'S RIGIDITY RAPIDLY DECREASED AS MATERIAL WAS REMOVED. I USED LAYOUT FLUID AND A SCRIBE TO FINISH THE SEMICIRCULAR ENDS ON A GRINDER BY HAND.
