Re: Getting to somethingsimmilar that I am doing in sketchupand QCAD at the moment
You can do this roughly the same way using Solid Edge's Split command, but you will need to create surfaces from the inside faces and extend them to or beyond the outside faces to use as the Split "tool" prior to using Split. Then after you have Split it into multiple bodies, you can use ...

Re: Getting to somethingsimmilar that I am doing in sketchupand QCAD at the moment
Omur, the way you are doing it in SW is how I want to do in SE but I battle because I am so new to the 3D way of design. Unfortunately SW is just way to expensive for a hobbiest in South Africa. I will labour through and get it right soon :) Thank goodness there are people like on this forum willing...

Re: Getting to somethingsimmilar that I am doing in sketchupand QCAD at the moment
In the long run, you will probably want these to be sheet metal parts. But given you are starting at ground zero I would start with simple extrudes. Once you understand that, you can look at making the parts out of sheet metal. I am sure I will get there but I must be honest this is a completely ne...

Thanks Guys, I dont speak solid edge either ha ha just dipped my toes in it 3 days ago. I dont have a bender so all these "parts" are cut from a sheet and every "bend" will be welded, so in the end I need a drawing of each "face" in 2D so I can cut them on the CNC Plasm...

Hi Samspade, Thanks for the reply, what I am trying to do is to draw these sketches in solid edge, at the moment I am unable to draw them in solid edge, yes total noob, I have drawn these in sketchup, but then I have to go and draw these again in 2D to cut on the plasma cutter, that is where I want ...

Getting to somethingsimmilar that I am doing in sketchupand QCAD at the moment
Hi Guys, I hope someone can get me pointed in the right direction. I have spent 2 days on the youtube videos and other training material to replicate what I am doing in sketchup and QCAD at the moment. I can do machine drawing etc etc however I am unable to draw the things I normally draw when using...
Re: Welcome!
Hi Everyone, Johan on this side of the world, South Africa, downloaded Solid edge 2 days ago, so I am still brand new at this, I used qcad which is 2D until now and the to have a 3d representation of my models I used an old version of sketchup. I mainly play around on a cnc plasma table. I am really...
