From: Joe788 on 19 May 2010 12:51 Probably because he's doing it wrong. [ "To me chaining is stupid and a waste of my time and shows how little original thought is often put into designing a better way instead of just copying what almost everyone else is doing." -Jon Banquer ] And this..... [ "I'm able to select the complete chain with someone else's imported wireframe drawing when I transform their wireframe geometry to the proper Z level. Sometimes I use break at intersection to make this easier. When I draw the model in wireframe I change Z levels and draw it on the proper Z level. I have not had a chance to use / read about the MasterCAM X solid model selection tools yet and don't know how much MasterCAM X automates the process of chaining solids compared to wireframe." - Jon Banquer ] I tried to help you Jon, but you didn't want the help. You're still struggling along, transforming z depths and breaking at intersections. LOL! |
