ramsay Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I have drew up a 40 x 40 x2 box section framework. The problem i have is the weldments cutlist i cant get the cut angles of item no 2 in the cutlist it just comes up blank. I take it this must be a problem with my sketch. Has anyone here any weldments experience. Does anyone know how to fix this / Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shift1313 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 so is your weldment cutlist setup up for automatic or manual? can you right click on one of the tubes not included and see if you have the option Make Non Weld Bead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shift1313 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 not off hand. There are very few SW users and unfortunately I havent produced a cutlist before. JDmathers I believe knows the most about SW but I couldnt tell you if he knows about weldments or cutlists. Ill keep digging and playing with it but unfortunately i just dont have an answer for you, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
