Neil O'Shea Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Hi Guys, I have been using Autocad on and off for a while, I am currently using 2005, but have only really worked in 2d. I have designed a chassis for my hot rod and I have a side elevation and a top elevation which I have extruded and subtracted to produce a 3d model of the chassis rail. My problem is how do I pull the true 2d geometry off of the 3d model or extrapolate ( I think thats the right word ) from the top and side elevations to produce a cutting path for the laser cutters. Any help would be very much appreciated. chass1.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 The only commands I can think of in 2005 AutoCAD would be SolProf and the combination of SolView/SolDraw. Do you have Express Tools loaded? Yes? Check for a command called Flatshot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
