On the extrusion menu "circle 1" there usually is a "through all button". Go to Solution. Solved by clint. You are trying to edit mesh geometry with solids. You need to convert the mesh geometry to solid bodies first. As that part is quite simple, try the Mesh enabler, this will turn the mesh into a solid, and edits should be a lot easier. Inventor Forum. Share your knowledge, ask questions, and explore popular Inventor topics. Solidworks software is being adopted rapidly by 3D printer users because of its amazing features.
It allows the users to save their 3d Designed models in STL file format and provides features to edit and modify the STL files as well. Solidworks is considered as one of the first software to bring 3D printing solutions for their users. TinkerCAD is a software tool that is well suited for newbies.
It means that it allows the users to create and edit complex 3D models by combining simple small objects. This advancement of the TinkerCAD makes the creation and editing process easy and allows the user to edit and modify the STL files without any hassle. This free mesh editing tool can be downloaded from the AutoDesk website. This is one of the favorite tools because of its easy operations and built-in slicer.
There is a good thriving helpful community out there as well as plenty of YouTube help. As stated below Fusion is available for free for hobbyists and small k turnover companies with a renewable yearly license.
Thanks, but I do not use Fusion, way too expensive for me Any other way, preferably at no cost? Denis, Fusion is absolutely free to the hobbyist and to small start ups. I highly recommend Fusion as it is a very well done program.
Yes it can be a bit glitchy at times but they are always updating the software and work very hard at making it work. The community surrounding Fusion is very awesome as well and most are willing to help. The program has a steep learning curve but there are some good people willing to help like Lars Christianson sp? Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like Bob and Grog are actually in agreement. Grog said "Meaning you can do some modifications on it, but pretty much just scale, transform, union, etc.
Where I have the quotes around "finished" item and you have them around "object". It does look like we agree. The alterations you talk about doing to the parts are the same I describe. Glrra, It depends on what you want to do with the object. It imports it as an object, no matter how many components were used to make it. So while it can be manipulated, you have to treat it like a single item not the components. Say if it was the astronaut model. You could do joins, intersections, scales and such on it.
But you couldn't rotate just the left leg and not the entire item. Or if it is a gear, you couldn't change the number of teeth on it. But I could do a scale and a union and combine the gear onto the chest of my astronaut and make it look like a logo on the space suit.
How do to cut mesh models? Need a simple method and free low cost software for it. Have two problems: 1 Print too high models, which more printable area. Both problems need cut model on two or more parts and follow combine and pathing theirs.
How to make it? I was advised to only import from the "file" menu, and export from the 'plugins' menu section. In each, one should always remember to make sure the units are set to mm for our work, using the "options" setter on the far right of the dialog when you choose an stl file for import.
If I can view them, I can measure them. If I can measure them, then if I want to modify them, I redraw if I can't edit the part as provided. I'm ever so grateful that these designs are freely offered in whatever form the creator choose to us, since their provision helps me to save time.
If I want direct manipulation capabilities, then I have to consider saving the sheckles to purchase the program in which they did their original work, or satisfy myself with whatever editing capabilities I can utilize with the tools I can afford.
Someone I can't remember who said Something in another thread about software that will split content into multiple pieces during slicing if I remember correctly. I don't recall which it was but perhaps they'll respond.
I try find it. Scanvs - Have a look at netfabb free version.
