Can I use ".CRV3D" files?

Outdoors: 15lb or 20lb Duna/Signfoam?

Sign makers,

For outdoor applications do you use 15lb or 20lb Duna/Signfoam?
Do you use a backer as well?

The particular sign is 24"x36" and will be bolted onto a post outdoors (garden setting) in the Bay Area of Northern California.

Collapse & Expand Design Tool Sections

A simple feature in V12 is the ability to collapse and expand sections of design tools by clicking on the tool section header.
I like that it keeps the interface from being too cluttered.

Deep cuts near an outer vertical wall obviously require a bit long enough to do the cut. ColletCollision.png However, for some ...
