Re: V12 teasers?

That seems to be the same one that was shown in the announcement. Now we need some specifics!

Re: forum going very slow and logging me out

Same for me, Logged me out and when I logged back in, it's slow to load each time I click on something. Also, no other websites are having these issues.

Re: Simulate a laser cutting through a project

I make plasma cut window security grates. I use aspire 10.5 and also have a problem with some unwanted areas not disappearing when double clicked. In addition, I have (depending on window size) over a hundred cutouts to double click. It’s a pain. In order to eliminate this issue, I make 2 tool paths...

Is there a way to save double sided as stl?

I've created a double sided job, a shelf bracket with detail on each side. I wanted to export it as a STL file, but when I do this I only get one side. I'm using v10.5, in case this feature was added to v11.

Thanks,

Re: How do you get out of Sheet view?

I could not get your last suggestion to work. Each time I double clicked the vectors would move to the default sheet which then would automatically be renamed sheet 1. Trying to renest keeps saying the vectors must be on the default sheet. I ended up copying all my vectors to a new project and will ...

Re: How do you get out of Sheet view?

Yes, I can see the other sheets, I can double click on them to see each one. The problem is I don't want sheets, but cannot figure out how to get back to everything on one sheet (layer).

How do you get out of Sheet view?

I have a file that I tried using nesting on to arrange several outlines of parts cabinets on to a sheet of plywood. The was one too many outlines to fit and it put one on a second sheet. There is only one layer, but I can't seem to get to a view that I started with. I'm using Aspire 10.5, I did not ...

They are sharp and have done the job for years. Buy something that fits your budget and buy a set of diamond hone...

Re: 4th Axis Incomplete Finish Cut

Can you run the code in a g-code simulator? There are some online. This would tell you if the code is correctly generated from the post processor. If not, I’d look at the code with a text editor and verify that the A axis commands are calling for a full revolution.

Re: Help with chamfer on a pipe

Is that plastic pipe? If so, could you run the cut path with a v-bit or is the chamfer angle uncommon?

Re: strange pocket behavior

Thanks to all.. I didn't know about the vector validater, thanks for pointing it out. I used it so I could see how it works. I had never seen that issue before, and didn't really know where to begin looking.

strange pocket behavior

I'm trying to clear off material so that I have 1 3/16" left. I use pocket tool path and 2 bits, 1.5" and .25" For some reason the 1.5" bit is not respecting the vector I chose or the material boundary. I've tried reordering the bits, deleting the paths and redoing them. 2020-09-17.png Had to zip th...

Re: Plasma Cutting Module

I also have been using aspire to make the dxf files which get exported to my plasma software. I was trying to get the plasma tool to work so I could use the preview to show customers. I’ll try the 0.40 endmill and see if that gives me what I want.
