Hi

Is it possible to make this in control nesting not the profile modeller, there are 2 outer bevels and 2 inner flutes on the part in the picture

Thanks Stephen

Re: Same major issue profiling parts

Daniel,
Success :beer: at starting on the top edge, climb cut as you look at the part in ecabs,so on the curved parts we’ve made we cant just start anywhere.

Re: Same major issue profiling parts

Hi Ryan

The tool is 26mm in diameter as we are working in metric, the tool #132 for the exterior profile and this tool is set in the tool manager and the default tool in the profile modeler.

Re: Double pass not working

Hi

Since the update very large parts get a double pass all parts and under that a skin is left on [not cut through] is there a quick fix?

Re: Door/Drawer editor opposite direction?.

Hi Daniel thanks for the reply
On trying this out we have found that the apply radius comp does not work in the tool dialog box in the door/drawer editor,but it only works in the part editor.

Re: Door/Drawer editor opposite direction?.

HI Daniel

This is not a problem to us as we use a door package we just thought we’d point it out because its the second time we’ve came across it, the file attached is of what it looks like in eCABS to what happens after machining,This problem also happens when you use any tool.

Door/Drawer editor opposite direction?.

Is there still a problem with the door/drawer editor, the exterior profile tool (additional offsets) are ok on screen in ecabs, but put through the supercontrol the tool offsets are in opposite direction?. :wall:

This was pointed out with an email in march 2007

Thanks Stephen
