Does anyone have a dimensioned drawing of changer fingers they can share ? I want to dabble in making my own PSG and would like to start with a known design if possible.

Thanks!

I have to-scale PDFs of changer fingers. I have had good results printing the templates, cutting them out and gluing them to the metal to be cut and drilled. Send me a PM to get a hold of the files.

Mike,

I am hoping To create 3-D cad files from whatever drawings I get. Are your PDF files dimensioned or they just templates that’s one to cut out manually on sheet metal or whatever material you’re going to use?

They are simple 2-D drawings of parts. I build with basic tools - table saw, band saw, drill press, miter saw and hand tools. Guess I didn't know what dimensioned drawings meant. Good luck with your search.

I have a large cnc, two 3d printers and a 60W Co2 laser cutter along with a fully equipped wood shop. I am going to experiment with different engineering grade plastics as well as aluminum. My first changer will be these plastics. Once I have a design I like, I will mill the pieces myself or use my designs to outsource the fabrication in metals, possibly ones I can’t machine like stainless steel.

I did find this drawing today. I am postimg it here to share with others.
