Oh the pain! It’s rather like the most cinnamonny bits of breaded excitement you’ve ever laid your eyes on, plus it’s stain-free, has a nice texture, and some o’ these cool links. 3D robots – Some Mechoid inspiration for your Friday. 3D models of robots with all the trimmings.

Scary isn’t it? So is not being able to protect those 3D models you’ve spent 1/3rd of your life working on. Fact is, sometimes you may need to share model data with a competing company. Some companies have policies against sending out data.
But you can protect it and still collaborate. Yeah, buddy. Here’s four fast ways to do it.
Suddenly and without warning all of our robots have become decrepit, obsolete piles of gears and we now depend on virtual synthanoids that require no pre-programmed set of commands. Hmmm. Interesting thought for the future. But apply this to that mass sitting on your desk right now. Is it a workstation desktop wired to the…
Sometimes you need parts to follow a pattern across different parts in an assembly. but creating patterns separately in the parts can be a pain.
There are work-arounds (mentioned below) but using a simple sketch pattern in an assembly can take away all the heartburn, allowing you to get back to your spring-rolls and won-tons. Here’s how to do it.
After seeing the Herman Miller Embody Chair for the first time, I became a wee bit obsessed with what went into the design. With the design and development ranging over years of the incredible experience of Jeff Weber and Bill Stumpf, the process had to be something to talk about.
Turns out it was. I had the chance to ask the design team a few questions about the project, what programs were used and how it affected the design. Guess what, SolidWorks used a little bit, but all together a whopping nine programs were use in the process. Take a look.
