deforming surfaces

[RAJ]

HOW WOULD U BEND A PART EDGE(TO A CERTAIN DEGREE FACTOR) WHICH CONTAINS A NUMBER OF SURFACES AND STILL MAINTAIN ITS FEATURES.

FOR EXAMPLE I HAVE A DASH INSULATOR WHICH I HAVE TO MAKE SUPPORTING ANVILS FOR TO TRIM AGAINST , BUT ON MY TOOL I WANT MY PUNCHES TO TRIM THE EDGES OF THE DASH INSULATOR VERTICALY SO I LITERALLY HAVE TO BEND THE PART EDGES TO MAKE THIS POSSIBLE.

ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED

IF ITS NOT POSSIBLE WITH MASTERCAM WHICH SOFTWARE CAN I DO THIS WITH

THANKS

I don't know of a way or of any software that would. If I understand you correctly.

You want bend all surfaces, not just a couple. Hmm ... That would be tough. It would be neat to see though.

Typically, I'd start out by TURNING OFF MY CAPS LOCK KEY WHEN I POST ON EMASTERCAM(because on the internet it is considered yelling), then I would probably have a look at Rhino CAD. They have many advanced surface editing features. Possibly not this particular feature but it's worth a look.

Sorry Raj, dodn't mean to yell. Have a nice weekend.
