We wont be short of mech eng's on here then, lol, cos I too am a mech eng, and (sounding like a contestant on play your cards right) hobbies include 2d and 3d CAD, Wireframe, Surfacing, in Procam2000 and Autocad, MCAD (in MDT2004 and Inventor Series), CNC Programming 2d and 3d milling for expanded Bridgeports and Seimens 840d XYZ machining centers for the tooling industy. Also partial to a bit of McNeel's Rhino, cos thats one robust surfacing mutherfucker!. Also do reverse engineering with a probe contact scanner for copying 3d shapes into point clouds for remaking cracked/smashed parts.JohnnyPink said:i do mech engineerin myself. Not got loads of experience, about 3 years in all. Every day work consists of 3D CAD modelling which i'm a dab hand at so can design stuff for you if required.
Currently running off ProE Wildfire 2.0,We also have inventor 9 and MDT2004 which i well prefer to ProE but we've gone onto this to keep in line with our American owners. Find autodesk products alot easier for the user tbh. ProE seems to go about the hard way of doing stuff.sirius said:JonnyPink, whats your 3d CAD tool of preference m8? Solidworks, SolidEdge, Catia or ProE/NX3 etc?

i managed to give o2 a good scare with me tactics lol!!!
Inventor is the way forward. Was well impressed when i had my training with what it can do.sirius said:JonnyPink..........Inventor 9 is the dogs dangly bits init , and the old favourite MDT for those awkward jobs where old fashioned manipulation and surfacing is needed and pukka Acad output. Just wish IV9 could draw surfaces in the .idw without being a solid and that it was a bit more comprehensive on surface tools.
Tried ProE a few years back, I found it a nightmare, but the Wildfire is supposed be be easier right? lol probably not. Dont envy you using that really .
