+1 for "Change Sketch Plane"

Thanks gcode for the info.

+1 for CNC PRO

Yes I believe so.

We have a couple of our routers with pop up

pins used to locate to the corners for

production runs. Check with your router guys to

see if they offer them for your machines.

I agree with tim on the contour ramp.

Also welcome to the forum Ross.

Wow Ron that will be a hell of a system.

John,

I also have icons

Quadro FX 5800

1920 x 1200 Res

Vista Ultimate 64 bit

X4

If you go to the linear page of your

control def there is the option to break

or not break linear motion.

Nice !

Latheman,

Sorry for coming across a little sensitive,

I just have family and friends that are having

a hard time and I am just concerned for them.

latheman,

That is a little harsh. There is

a lot of people willing to work,

that have no control over what is

happening with their places of

employment. Depending on the area

you live, there may or may not be

other options. I am blessed, where

I work we have quite a bit of work,

and some of the jobs are spread out

over several years. However there is

a lot of people around here willing

to work that can not find it and

are extremely frustrated.

Telling a man that is about to loose

his home and has to move his family

to try and find work, all the while

spending what retirement he has left

to make it happen that he is unwilling

to work does not sit to well with me.

You might want to rethink your statement

unless you have been there.

We have stayed for the most part busy.

Had a production meeting with the owner

yesterday, and he informed us of several

new large POs. Looks like we will be

very busy the rest of the year.

I also would go with Dell.

I bought a M90 laptop a couple

of years ago with no problems.

Very stable machine.

Yes thanks Colin and Thad you got me

out of a tight spot today.

John,

I forgot to add that I run Vista 64 bit.

John,

I had a problem with my drilling cycles recently

after I installed the latest window update that

included IE8. I had this problem with X3. Our IT

guy removed IE8 and I reinstalled X3. I now use

Firefox. It correct the problem and since then

I have installed X4 and so far no problems with

my drill cycles.

Thanks Gunther

InHouse Rules

We bore plastic sometimes on our

routers and we use plastic drills

from Onsrud Cutter. Their designed to

break the chips so they don't rap up

around the spindle. HTH

Sounds like a great place to work Ron.

Thanks Ron

I agree, nice work.

I would be all for a new sub forum.

I use SolidWorks 09 everyday and

I am always looking for new ways to

improve.

Go to your operations manager, files,

go down to operations defaults, click the

exclamation mark, change whatever you

would like for your default.
