  1. They will have problems the place I left purchased Router and tried to bring in Mill3 five axis programs and had all kinds of problems. Solution to problem buy the same thing that you originally made the program with =(mill level 3) and have the same post or it will give you problems.
  2. Can't you pick a color (when the file opens) and then delete that color? That is what I have been doing.
  3. thanks guys that worked I had to do one at a time like you said Murlin little time consuming but looks good. Learn something new everyday. I owe you one
  4. Whoa I don't know what that is all about. Want me to try it again and do something different?
  5. I don't think so is it giving you problems?
  6. Hello all, I'm running into a problem with a mold design I'm doing. I need to transition from draft surfaces to the mold plate (red surfaces) and it needs to be a 1" radius can anyone look at this file and give me some hints on how to do this. I'm running version 9.1sp2 no solids. The file is in the version 9 folder under variplume_core_xs.zip. Thanks in advance and this place rocks.
  7. Create surface trim extend flat boundary manual and drag the arrow to the trim feature. maybe
  8. That stuff is good my wife drinks it also I'm a suds man though
  9. +1 to The Millman Curve5 cut paths rule I use them alot.
  10. Rasp bits work well also crank that spindle up and put a mask on.
  11. I agree with slick 3+2 programming works all the time for me and I do avoid using the constant axis machining. Tool containment boundaries are the key.
  12. Man this place is great learn something new every day.
  13. Ron is like a bear trap waiting to be sprung and calls them like he see's them.
  14. I get it alot too just put a weight on the enter key and let it bring it in
  15. Thanks guys I think it is just the bone heads on the floor not cleaning the stuff out of the collets and overtightening the nut we are using the Techniks 5/8" diameter extention like wildcat is. I'm going to look at some of these suggestions and see if I can find a better nut setup I think that is what is giving them their problem.
  16. Hello all, I'm looking to improve on a what we use for tool extensions here. We are currently using a 5/8" diameter solid tool extension and the nosepiece (covernut) uses a spanner wrench setup to tighten it up this is the problem area. The operaters keep going through these wrenches like crazy. Got any suggestions for a solid tool extension that uses a standard wrench to tighten them up. thanks in advance
  17. Recreate it or it will just keep giving you problems.
  18. I downloaded the 30 day trial the other day playing around with it. Looks cool
  19. I use the backplot in wireframe like what Jimmy is talking about and it seems to work well hopefully verify will work better with x.
  20. Thanks guys I was leaning towards the solid carbide but didn't know what to coat with. Kansas is great good to be back by family and warmer weather.
  21. Anybody machining fiberglass reinforced ABS parts out there? What are you using for tooling to cut this nasty stuff any tips?
  22. I'm with Ron on this one sounds like a mechanincal error.
  23. Did you check out their web site? Offering alot of computer training wonder how much is legit..
  24. Almost looks like a baketball back board.
