I'm sorry for not giving the info about my Solidworks 2012. I've been rusty. CChunter, thanks for the help. I knew that I was close, in fact, that was a total brain fart. Take care guys.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=3e9af135-8e47-48bb-b30c-7c985888ba2c&file=Resolved.JPG

Hello all. I need to cut out this section, and I think I need to use revolve cut. Here is a picture. Can someone tell me how to cut out this section along the interior of this wall?

Sorry guys, I haven't been able to get into this just yet. I promise to respond though. Thanks for all the comments.

I have gotten it back. Funny thing, sort of by accident. So, I did clear the partition, and re-write on it rfus. Thanks for the input. I searched my computer initially here - Start (or windows icon), then typed in the search .SLDPRT. For some reason, that has been searching only emails. I...

I have a "clickfree Automatic Backup" I used that to back it up. I just plugged it in and a timer started, well, I clicked back up before the timer hit zero, same would have resulted though. The deepest that I have gone to recover files is using a program called Restoration, you can get it at...

Sorry for the delay. No, I didn't verify when I backed it up. It's strange, because it's only part, and assembly files, all of them. Not one was put on my external hard drive. Since I reformatted my hard drive, I can't even use restoration to get them back. So whatever is on my backup is it...

Hello All. Can someone show me an example of an assembly where, say a lever being pulled affects another part of the assembly, if this is possible? I want to build a machine, but I want it to work like it would in real life. Like gears I guess, when one metal part moves, it will affect...

Hello All. Prior to reinstalling my computer hard drive, I backed up with an external hard drive. I reinstalled and loaded my old files. All of my part (.SLDPRT) files are gone, off of my external hard drive, and my computer. For some reason, my external hard drive did not take them, I...

Yea, that will make things faster. Thanks for the input.

Yea, I'm putting them in. It's a personal project, so I don't mind. I have five frames, and the holes are on many different planes. So the linear pattern wont work well. Thanks though. I'm almost done getting them all in by just inserting them, than mating them. I don't want to put holes...

I am making a deck. I am inserting nails that I created into my assembly. The thing is that I need to insert a lot of them. Is there an option to insert say 10 or 20 nails at a time instead of 1 at a time?

Well that's just great. Thanks very much CorBlimeyLimey. It's just that simple. I really appreciate it. Take care.

Does anyone know how I can enlarge just a section of my part in a solidworks drawing? I want the whole part to be 1:1. I would like to take the little loop and make it say 4:1 right next to it to show the dimensions. Thanks in advance for the help.

Handleman. I used to use the "Swept Boss/Base" "Twisting" and then I'd set the turns. The only problem with that is that I can't twist it with the fill material between the wires. The fill cannot touch the stem at all. Took a while to find the flex tool. But in regards to the sweep, I create...

bwanamukubwa. I'm going to try that when I get to work tomorrow. But, what is it compared to the linear pattern? I'm thinking of just simplifying it if this doesn't work. Uglay, I'm also going to try your idea about the parisolid. I'm going to have to do some research. I'm literally only...
