MMOE, all your fixes worked. I still see a micro break when I'm zoomed out but when I drill down I don't see any of them so it's of no concern to me. I was almost wondering if they are there so you can see where "end of lines" are to make connecting lines just that much easier for end points?
So I can say that BobCAD is sooooo user friendly. I can draw skis in this program in about 2-3minutes without issue. Thank you for the suggestion to get this program. a few follow up questions.
I've attached my ski base file to this thread. It has a reduction in the side to account for the base width. looks great in bob and via cad. however when I generate the tool path in Bobcam it doesn't follow the side of the ski, only the tips tails (it does connect at the tip, mid section, and tail of the reduced area but that's it; It almost looks like it is trying to make the curve more smooth and not have two radiuses). Can someone verify if it does the same on their BobCAM? (base outline)
Second question, I've drawn the ski core dimension in ViaCAD as MMOE demonstrated. supper easy, thank you. however when I import it into bobCAD it doesn't come in as a solid and I can't generate a tool path with the file. I can import one of the "2D models" in the z/x axis just fine and pull it out in the y but then I'm profiling more than I need to. (Core Profile) Am I missing something here? does it have to do how I'm exporting out of ViaCAD?
Once I get these two items figured out I'll have 51% of this stuff figured out... then it's all down hill from there. :-)
Please let me know if you need screen shots of any the bobCad stuff. Cheers.
