Garry Adams Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Hi all, Iv been in the Scaffolding Industry since 1972, I have a keen interest in Scaffolding Desing...however I would like to learn to use C.A.D. and hope to progress into 3d/solid modeling,can anyone advise ...im a real dinasore still use the old drawing board...would like to join the 21st Century...All comments wellcome...Regards Garry...

ReMark Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Welcome Garry. Having been "on the board" myself, at one time, I can certainly relate. The jump to CAD, while vexing and perhaps even a little frustrating as it may be, will soon be rewarding with patience and practice. I can't give you much help with scaffolding design but any questions regarding getting started in CAD I'd be more than willing to try and answer. You'll find many knowledgeable and helpful people. Every day I visit this site I learn something new. Who says you can't teach an "old dog" new tricks? Quote
Garry Adams Posted March 10, 2007 Author Posted March 10, 2007 Cimerahow ? my Freind and thank you 4 the wellcome hand across the sea eh...ye iv browsed the site and im learning stuff allready via the beginners forum... I hope to have a chin wag later , Fraternal regards, Garry...slangivar Quote
puddin9999 Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I know its an old thread but, I have developed a number of 3d scaffolding blocks if anyone wants em let me know, cheers AV Quote
ReMark Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Welcome to the CADTutor forum puddin9999. Could you post one of the smaller (in terms of file size) 3D scaffolding blocks so we can check it out? Thanks. Quote
puddin9999 Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Hi there here's an example of a universal base jack, Cheers Drew Universal_Base_Jack.dwg Quote
Daftlad Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Welcome Pudding9999, Any chance you could send me them blocks over? Im a Scaffold Designer myself and have loads of 2D blocks but would love to get my hands on some 3D ones. I have been playing around with some dynamic blocks too which are handy. Quote
puddin9999 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Welcome Pudding9999, Any chance you could send me them blocks over? Im a Scaffold Designer myself and have loads of 2D blocks but would love to get my hands on some 3D ones. I have been playing around with some dynamic blocks too which are handy. No worries, will send tomorrow, basically I'll send em as drawings if u turn em into blocks they don't use as much space, I've been experimenting with 3d scaffolding blocks and 3d drawings of scaffolds in general, I've found it saves heaps of time particularly when generating elevations etc. Its the fittings that consume the space but transoms and legders, boards etc arent intensive on the memory, have produced drawings in 3d without the fittings and theyre effective in their own right. Mate if you send me your 2d blocks I'll see if I can turn em into 3d blocks etc, I've nearly got most tube and fitttings done and nearly all cuplock system scaffold which is great. I want to create a full library next project will be 'kwikstage' and then will move onto some of the system formwork etc. Cheers av (dublin ireland) Quote
puddin9999 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 my email address is a.vincent@cil.ie send me your email and I'll send the 3d scaffold drawings, Cheers AV Quote
cleasc Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 If possible, I'd love to get my hands on those blocks also!!! david.parsley at alintaenergy.com.au Cheers!!! Quote
mikekmx Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 search for xtube lisp i use it all day every day for circular duct but i'm sure it would be very useful for scaffolding in 3D Quote
