  1. notso, the line doesn't have to be perpendicular. tangent works just fine. I think it will work with arc also but I always use a line. (an old habit)

  6. I will have to wait until I get to my own computer. probably tonight.
  7. I think I have something. I developed an apt post a couple of years ago. I have never had anyone test it in real application If you like I can upload it.
  8. +1 on the pantry. I love getting served my meals by cons. I suggest the sourdough toast. sound wierd but it really is the best.
  9. I have just seen recieved a new tool to make surfaces from points. It is from Verisurf. If you send me the points I will create a surface and send it back for your review.
  10. if the toolpaths are already done you can click on t/cplane on parameter page and change the cplane,tplane and wcs then regen. pay close attention to the changes and backplot to verify.
  11. thanks stork. hey rob, how long did it take to draw the wireframe? I think to really appreciate the use of solids you should put some fillets on this model and then compare the time difference. consider 10 minutes to make this drawing. now put fillets. the time to fillet with wireframe will probably take longer than the drawing. the fillets are almost automatic with solids. a few projects like this and i think you will be sold on solids.
  12. please look at robsol1 and see if it is the same as the others billy
  13. create curves all edges solid
  14. I think it is a drafting note that has its associated entity deleted and is removing the association.
  15. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Learn the wireframe, it will make you a much better well rounded programmer. Don't scrimp, educate yourself properly. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Very good point but where did you learn complex 3d wireframe drafting?
  16. Dave, Don't do it! In my career I spent too many years using wireframe. I couldn't draw to my own satisfaction and the fillets took way to long to create. Learn to use solids! It is the only way to go. I learned in a couple of months how to draw better than years of wireframe. Billy
  17. d'andrea is the best one i have seen. big bucks though. about 10 years ago a set of 3 boring heads. 12",9" ,6" for about $25,000. used on boring mills and jig bores.

  20. Hi guys, Did I miss something? Dragon, Yes, and I'll see.
  21. I usually download about 2 hours of porno from 8th st latinas. I give it to our it guy and he does'nt bomb out my unit. Billy
  22. when you go to france tell them you want to take over their country. They will roll over and probably salute you. if you say you're american they will be very rude. billy
  23. be aware, make sure you take extra to clean your ways often while working with fiberglass. I have seen it plug oil injectors and destroy ways. Also dispose of chips and dust. Don't blow it around if you can help it. very irritating to the skin and can hang around for years.
