I want to make 3 pairs of beams all the same but slightly different. Ideally I would like to mill them from one plate in one session to save tool changes.
I can get round SW at about fair to crap. With SC I am at the watch the solidprofessor videos do that bit then watch the next one and so on.
In SW I could create three configurations taking care of the differences, or just draw three different beams in one go and save and copy to create six I guess. That would give me six I could lasso with a stock box in SC.
Then in SC I could watch all the vids and create a load G code for each beam and each operation. The only saving being the tool changes. So I am guessing I could get it done but surely there is a more elegant solution than this? I am pretty certain I am not the first guy to want to make more than one, so which tab-menu-solid professor vid have I not seen?
