I have BobCAD V22 and so far the system seems to do everything I ask, it just takes me a little time and a few attempts to do it the way BobCAD needs in order to get what I want.
My latest project needs a little number plate. So here is what I did.
I started off with a 7" diameter solid sphere, located at x0,y0,z-7.
Then I made a 2" diameter solid cylinder 1" long located a x0,y0,z-.500.
I extracted the ball from the cylinder which left me with a 2" diameter with a concaved face. Within the concave surface, I want to have a number "5" raised up out of the dished surface.
This is where I am stuck. I can not seem to get the "5" geometry onto the dished out area. I have tried to use the 5 as a boundry but that did not work.
The "5" that I am using is a TrueText font and kind of fancy.
I am also wanting some other lettering on this surface but I figured I would figure out how to do the "5" and work from there.
I am beginning to suspect that this may have to be done in BobArt.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Martin
