does anyone have a .dwg or .dxf file of a chain ring - i want to waterjet cut one with a custom pattern on the inside, but would like to save a little time - it's a 48 tooth
Chain Ring pattern for autocad

thanks again Roger! - here's what i came up with for the next project - going to get it on the waterjet early next week and see how it works
Anytime, maybe you could cut one for me sometime (if I ever got around to designing one!) There's actually a lisp program I use in autocad that will generate any tooth sprocket I need. You ever used lisp in autocad?
Oh yeah, Nice sprocket!

yah - shoot me what you're thinking - I don't use autocad that much - mostly Adobe illustrator and flexi-sign - I own a graphic design / sign business
Try this page. I actually have the downloaded version before they offered the online version. You will need to add the 0.937" center hole and the 0.440" crank hole located at 1.360" (center to center).

thanks for all your help and info guys - I'll post pics on it next week to show how it turned out after cutting - I'm super stoked
(Sorry to hijack, but) HI Steve, so do I. Nice to meet a colleague here!
I´ve been playing around with this idea a while also. I use watercut objects on my work every now and then and thought I make a test sprocket one of these days. Design isn´t done yet though...

sweet! i was a photoshop artist for a few years in a corporate environment, but couldn't stand not making stuff, so i got into signs about 12 years ago and now i've switched gears again - still working on the digital stuff for the bread and butter, but getting into some more custom hand done old style stuff
