Re: Help please. . . Box Gadget
I'm on the latest Aspire version. I've used the Box Gadget a few times before and love it.
Now I really need to use it and it's failing.
This is what I'm after.

But I'm only getting 2 of the sides and the base before it fails.

Re: Help please. . . Box Gadget
Try increasing the size of the material. Others have reported that this error can come up when the material isn't big enough to hold all the parts. I haven't had it do that myself but it's an easy enough change to make, you can always reduce it afterwards.

Thanks Adrian. I'll try it now.
It's not been a problem before so I didn't even think of that.

Re: Help please. . . Box Gadget
All I can suggest is tweaking the settings you're using until it works. The error is thrown when a certain loop in the code goes on for more than 10 times.

Ah!
I can understand that.
" Ever decreasing circles"
I'll be tweaking my settings tomorrow then.
Thank you Adrian.

Re: Help please. . . Box Gadget
Thanks Adrian,
Cor! What a Pullava!
Right. It wouldn't allow me to do the ends.
I managed to do one end and run it again to do the base & sides.
Just need to copy the one end and move it onto my sheet and I'll be away.
It's been interesting as I now have a better understanding of what's going on.
Cheers.
Jim

Re: Help please. . . Box Gadget
Quick update:
I'm starting to get the hang of it. I'm creating all of my parts and using my max sheet size I can work out how many 8' x 4' plywood sheets I need. Got to do it quickly to order the ply. I've just been asked to do some CAD work so the drawers have to wait. . . . . . which doesn't make the planning dept. happy. (Mrs. Jim)
Big learning curve but very happy with Aspire.
Thanks Adrian for your help.
