Abstract
A method of manufacturing a thin wall isogrid or the like casing by a machining process includes the steps of mating a casing with a support, the said support having a substantially continuous support surface engaging at least part of the inner or outer surface of the casing and machining a plurality of recessed pockets in the inner or outer surface of the casing opposite the surface engaged by the said support. The support reacts loads acting on the casing by a machining tool during machining, thereby minimizing distortion of the casing and tearing of the pockets being formed. During the mating process, the casing is deformed such that the support surface engages substantially the whole of the inner or outer surface of the casing.
