T3 T4 combination flange?????????
I'd like to find a special flange that I have seen before.
The flange is basically a T3 flange, with a split entry, with more material around the perimeter of it to also have the 4 mounting holes of a T4.
Here is a pic of it:
all markings in blue = the corresponding T3 Dimensions and all red = T4
Side note:
I know everyone is going to say just get a T4 flange, but this is for a special project (not M30) and some T3 turbines could be used and some T4 turbines could be used. and since I am unsure of which turbo I want without actually "feeling" it, I want to have the ability to just bolt on or bolt off with ease.
Sooo,
Where Can I find this thing???

Oh, don't forget a plasma cutter and air compressor would help too.Mark 88/M5 Houston wrote:Sweeney wrote:russc wrote:You could make one pretty easily with a drill and a jigsaw.I think a center punch and a drill press would be nice too.de-burr, files, sandpaper and some emeriy cloth is nice also.

Nice concept, nice capability, and nice software, but the price is not so nice. Quite frankly, it's exhorbitant. Their prices on some very simple parts I'd designed (1/4" thick, 2"x4" acrylic rectangles with six non-tapped holes) led me to look for alternatives and ended up with me buying a Taig mill. IIRC, even with quantities in the double digits, pricing was going to be higher than $50 each.graphite wrote:eMachineShop

I think he should really buy a Bridgeport instead of a drillpress.Mark 88/M5 Houston wrote:Sweeney wrote:russc wrote:You could make one pretty easily with a drill and a jigsaw.I think a center punch and a drill press would be nice too.de-burr, files, sandpaper and some emeriy cloth is nice also.
