stl file

[Tim Pruett]

Do you have to have a solids package to save your stock as an stl file?

[Guest]

No you do not.

 

After verify, there is a save button, that will save it as an .stl

I dont think, just run verify on the part, and save that. if you want a stl of the stock just run a pass that dosnt touch the part, and save that

Almost beat ya John

Whenever I verify my part I save as an stl file. Then under stock under stock setup I click on the radio button for file and then select the stl file I saved, but whenever I try to verify the next set of operations the stock still comes in as a rectangle but its much larger. The original stock was 3.5" square but when it comes in as the stl file it looks like it's 10" square. Please help.

same thing happens here, I have to call it up in the verify options

McamNut;

 

Do you mean, under Settings, configuration, verify interface, verify settings?

 

If I click on the file radio button, under stock settings and select my stl file it still doesn't work. Whenever I go back into settings, config, ....

It reverts back to Box. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

I finally got it. Called up the stl file under the verify configure screen and it worked like a charm. Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it.
