Quoted from pb456:Thank you - I haven't done really anything substantive with any CAD software outside of the Microsoft 3D builder. My daughter has more experience in that than I have!!
With an STL file - a pre-made model of say, lane guides - would it be easier to start with that or to do a new model?
I ask as some of the Williams lane guides on ThingVerse are really cruddy, not accurate and could use some tweaking. I was thinking of that and possibly some plastics. Some of the posts are close but not quite there.
Would it be easier for someone with Fusion or Solidworks skill to redo those?
I can add to STL files but sometimes it’s easier to start from scratch. Thin final products like lane guide sides might be an issue 3D printing as its hard to build a really thin strong wall that won’t delaminate.
