    Slicing 3D Objects into Multiple 2D Planes and Outputting

    Thanks for the replys. I figured a general purpose routine that slices at different thickness (in any plane) and saves the results off would be useful. I'm going to experiment and see what I can figure out. I like the idea of creating planes on separate layers, sounds like it might have some...

    Slicing 3D Objects into Multiple 2D Planes and Outputting

    I would like to be able to slice 3D objects into layers 1/8" (or 1/16") thick and then output all of the 2D XY plane outlines to an individual file. This would allow me to build up 3D objects from 2D 1/8" thick pieces of steel. Can anyone tell me the best way to accomplish this...
