design challenge

Post by Jeff Blewitt »

Ok I know one of you guys is going to fire back \"Too Easy Sarg!\" but,....... I had a request for a ROUND table with a SCALLOPED apron that needs to be done ASAP. I'm having trouble figuring out how to make the apron with scallops. A little help please?

Thanks,
-Jeff

Here's what I have so far. The apron needs to scallop with the high points at the center of each leg

This technique would need some cleaning up but it can be done.

Jeff,
Attached is your table with the apron cut and the tool I used to do it.
I created a tool to cut the scallops and defined intersecting tool paths in contour to guide the tool to cut the scallops. I changed the name of the assembly file so that it won't overwrite your original

See Jeff,

There's my point. All roads point to Kerry. :wink:

Kerry, Kerry he's our man...If he can't do it no one can :lol:

That's what I love about this place. Such a nice place to live...

Can't get this kind of service and advice from any other software out there.

Kerry,
You're awsome. once again you pulled me out of a pinch and taught me something new all at the same time! You MUST be sick of hearing that by now :D . Anyway, Thanks again! Hopefully I can return the favor.

By the way, I tried that coffee you suggested in another post. All I can say is that stuff must be made specifically for e-cabs super heros. Brewed up great, & smelled wonderful. But when I took the 1st sip it bit me right back!

Thanks,
-Jeff
