casting - lathe quick change gear box
What CAD program is that? (I suspect AutoCAD, based on your input in Mantis). I use Alibre Design Personal Edition, the lowest tier of three. It is now owned by 3D Systems. They have changed the branding of it. The upper 2 tiers are known as "Geomagic Design" and the lowest tier (old Pers...

Re: sketch edit doesn't update the pocket???
Of course it worked out great. Thanks. What I've learned... Use refine shape at the very end. "Refine shape" becomes a new feature in the tree. Can I delete after using it without a reversion? (graphically) Learn to use constrains more efficiently. I know I don't use them well. Now I'll go...

Re: How do I load a backup file e.g. *.FCStd4
You're asking the wrong person now. I don't know anything about those things. I've seen the word *mime* used before, but I sure don't know what it means. Sorry.

Re: How do I load a backup file e.g. *.FCStd4
