HELP...vx question

Eli,

You probably won't find anyone here with your answers. In fact, the VX user community in general is pretty thin. There are a couple of people at "alt.machines.cnc" that use VX for mold design and CAM.

I thought VX came with about a hundred pounds worth of manuals.

Regards

Mark

Kinda scary, actually.

iDunno a thing about VX myself, but have you looked thu Help, or whatever documentation, for "offset"? (Google for VX + surface + offset turns up a lot of hits.)

jon banquer and his seamless, hybrid crapola probably knows the answer to this. Haven't heard from that dude lately.

He'd have no clues. As usual. after all, he never actually used any system for anything at all beyond a 15 minute canned demo.

Post to alt.machines.cnc. IIRC There are some VX users there.

Thanks. There is indeed quite a stack of manuals provided, but the descriptions of individual functions aren't that great. The program can do everything I'm asking it to do, it's really an issue of understanding how everything is organized in VX. Anyways, thanks for your responses.

In VX you

I know nothing about VX. From the SW viewpoint, you might have to offset the original surface, then build surfaces between the edges, possibly knit the surfaces, and finally do whatever it is in VX that tells it a closed set of surfaces is a solid.
