Re: Second Video Showing Delcam For SolidWorks

Not a great video but it does show how smart Delcam For SolidWorks is

Still nothing new, nothing that hasn't been around for quite a few years there Jon.

Why are you so impressed with it now, all of a sudden? You do know this is nothing new, right? You never used a real CAD/CAM system where the model (CAD) and machining (CAM) is associative?

Why hell, they even used SolidWorks in your video to edit the model. Looked pretty easy, not like any of the beginner SW issues you constantly had and complained about trying to use SW. OH! and they still have a history tree, used it without any issues, whassssssssup with dat? Seemed pretty easy to pick a feature and modify, didn't it?

Think CAD/CAM Jon, associative, it's been around for years. Where you been, thought you were an expert?

than stand-alone CADCAM programs like > Gibbscam that don't even know what a feature is.

As an expert you make quite a few beginner mistakes Jon. Like calling GibbsCAM a CADCAM program. GibbsCAM is a CAM program NOT a CAD/CAM program, you should know that.

Nothing special, same functionality has been around for years. As a CAD/CAM Expert you should have known about it years ago.
