bd1308... so are you trying to cut out a section on an arc?
Could you maybe post a better picture of front, side, top view and label them? |

Ok, but perhaps we can figure this out without needing SW at the moment.
Is he surface that you wish to cut flat for rounded? |

I have so many inventions I wanted to see in cad. Spin them around in 3d to see all sides. Animate them etc. Ive bought at least 6 cheaper cad programs. Some were fun to play with but I never got far at all with my designs.... Why cant a prog take .jpg image of an object (blue or white background) then convert it to a cartoon effect that some camera suits include, then in cartoon image hi contrast lines could easly be traced as a starting point for your drawing, or converted into wire frame. Ive even thought of Correll Draw could help..... What Ive found out about Cad prog's in general is they are very hard to understand. One would need hi dollar prog and puter and training and alot of practice. And thats alot to bite off when your having to earn an living. Any one have suggestions for an overworked frustrated inventor.

because the "operator" of this cad program wouldn't need any experience to create a part. This software is like to the max and you create everything from scratch, so i feel that if the program did it all for you, it'd be like cheating. |
