and the "all" button gives you alot of options for selection preference

Hey SCott have you tried toggling the 3d option to 2d before you select your geo? it is located at center screen bottom left, that usually does the trick for me

hey hardmill, the funny thing is, the solid model seems to be more problematic, as far as creating fillets go..weird

hey guys thanks for the help, i opened the file you sent Hardmill and i can duplicate that also, but i cannot achieve a larger fillet than what you got also, and on top of that, it does not trim up completly. I split the parts and i was able to put in a larger fillet but it would only work on one side. Anyways, i have gotten the boss to back down and we will let the Fab shop just sand it into the mold..nice! Thanks again for your help guys.

Thanks MIllman, i will try that.

Hey Guys, i have uploaded a file to the FTP called "Tube loft" and i am needing some help. when you get the file open you will see two distinct lofted features and i am trying to blend the two. The radius is not important but the bigger the better, it is for air flow. I have tried this in solidworks, Rhino, and mastercam, but i cant seem to get anything that looks nice or consistant, so i would appriciate it if anybody else could lend their expertise. i can fillet maybe one side but then the other side wont do it, so i am at a loss. Thanks for the help.

THANK YOU!

HI guys, i have searched for this and i couldnt find another thread, so forgive my ignorance if i somehow missed it but i have a problem putting a file in the ftp using both internet explorer and firefox. i am needing help trying to fillet something and i thought the file itself would speak volumes as opposed to trying to discribe it but i cant seem to put the file on the ftp. In firefox it will only let me save the file to my desktop as if i was trying to download it not upload it, and in IE it keeps asking me for my password even though i have already put it in. thanks in advance for the help.

Hey greg, i watched that video, and that is very impressive, and maybe he saw the same thing hence his reasoning for wanting to do it that way? none the less, i think that was what he was looking for, thanks!

hey guys, thanks for the help and the opinions, i agree whole heartedly with the optimal way to do the part on a lathe, but the boss is the boss and i am but a wheel in the cog. thanks again for the help!

Hey trevor, in case your still there, are you using the machsim from the C-hooks or are you using a full third party simulator? i cant find the version you are using on the FTP unless it is a paid version. i emailed my dealer, so thanks for the info.

thanks matt, that sounds like a good idea

thanks trevor

Hey Trevor, that was what i was talking about, thanks a bunch for the help guys. On a a side note trevor, where did you get the trunnion machine for the Machsim? I have never been able to get that to work. Could i just save your trunnion as a machine of my own? Thanks again

let me try that, thanks.
