I use TurboCAD at home it helps me with my hobby.
In general I design glider models, then prepare parts send the files for laser cut and at the end build up the model and enjoy RC flying.
The companies where I send my files... it looks like they do not use CAM software.
So, I need to prepare files by myself.
By preparing files I mean that I need to:
- Make an proper offset
- Make bridges - cut parts should not fall of from material
Now offset is not a problem but making bridges is a real pain.
I suggest to add new mode for Object Trim tool to trim by point.
It could work like this:
I select Object Trim tool, choose new mode, enter trim size e.g 2mm, activate recurrence, and click on work plane on some objects.
In the place that mouse was clicked let's keep this point as a center, tool break the line and remove some of it.
With that easy way I can create as many bridges as needed in few minutes.
It can be also a new tool. One requirement for that: Tool or option should be available in TurboCad Deluxe version.
Adding two photos, just to show how many elements are in those prepared files.
Doing it really takes much time.
