Hi, just wondering if anyone has a file for a 3 part poppy?
So will look like petals when cut and welded together.
Similar to the pic ive added.
Thanks in advance.

Chris - this will give you a chance to practice with Inkscape. Let us know how it turns out.

Or maybe save yourself some time and buy a similar file.

Thanks david, i can buy ready made from our parts supplier, but are limited to one size, so im thinking making them is the way to go.

You can scale the designs for different sizes, can't you?

Chris,

I agree! Once you have created the file, you can scale to whatever size (or sizes) you need for your particular project. If you like the ones your supplier sells, then you could take some measurements from that one and create a similar file.

Please post a photo of the ready made one your parts supplier offers - just so I can see exactly what you want it to look like as a finished part. I did a google search and came up with the selections shown below. I would expect that the ready made ones from your supplier are in bare metal ready to weld on and paint.

Thanks,
David

I like this one I found on Amazon.

The pedals have more detail in the edges - I think I would go for something like this if I were making some of them.
