See Through Boats!!!




This is one radical innovation that will change the way you look at boats, literally. We are going to mold a single sheet of clear polycarbonate (aka "bullet proof glass")into a completely transparent canoe. The process begins by designing the boat in 3-D modelling software (I use Solidworks). Once the boat has been designed, that file is used to create a 3-D model of a mold. The mold is then machined using a 5 axis CNC milling machine. Here are a couple images of the 3-D model that was created in Solidworks

Welcome to Jepson Design

Alright... so this blog is here to showcase my designs. I thought a blog would be a good idea so that I can easily add new projects and show everyone what I’ve been working on. Over the years I’ve been lucky to have worked on some very interesting projects, I hope you’ll enjoy checking them out.
