Delcam Powershape & Powermill User Guides/Training Manuals

Looking to find any training or manuals to aid in getting up and running in both Powershape and Powermill.
Thanks

You had any luck with this?

Powershape making progress; but not without issue:

For example, I make a 20x20 box and convert it to composite curve, then I smart surface it and get what looks like a great surface all flat in multiple orientations.

But, then I convert it to a solid and run the solid doctor and it says there is a hole in one corner. If I automatically fix this non visible hole-- then additional problem of overlapping surfaces comes up. Whats up with this hole?

I think I'm missing something.

Hey, I just spotted this thread.

Your 20x20 'box' is really just a single flat surface. PShape expects a solid to have volume. So because your box is not connected to enough other surfaces to form a volume, it shows you the unconnected edges to report a hole. In your case, all edges are unconnected.

As a PShape user from V1 (1998) I'm considering a series of YouTube tutorials. Let me know if there'a an audience.

Cheers!
Matt

Thanks Matt. I missed your post until this evening ... Your insight is appreciated.
I may ask you a few more questions when I get back on Powershape.
