Weldment cut-list question
Weldment cut-list question
(OP)
Hi, I have a welded frame consisting of about 7 different size pieces of channel and tubing. I'm still not totally sure how the whole cut-list works in your part file, for example, re-ordering and moving members of your cutlist around and to different folders, etc. And how to change the order of the cutlist to be what you want in the drawing's table.
Also, I have 2 pieces of C5 x 6.7 x 24 inches long. Both of their path segments come from the same sketch and both pieces of channel were created in the same member feature. However, they show up as seperate items in my drawing's cut-list table. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? And can somebody help me out understanding the cutlist? I've already read help and searched the forum. No luck.

If you have already gone through the Tutorial, maybe going through it again will help.

Just little things you will learn over time like the 'automatic' feature isnt all that great. I myself switch it off and create it manually.
The RMB is your friend. :D Once you have created your weldment, right mouse click the one or multiple parts that are identical and select "Add to cutlist".
Anyway...it is a complicated feature in sw. But once you mess around with it for awhile, it gets easier.

But you are right about not being able to reorder after thay have been created and an ER is definately justified
