Does anyone know how to 3D model an endmill? I've tried tons of ways, but they keep looking very half ass. Anyone have any tricks?

Does anyone know if there are any add-ins for more wood types? I want alder and rosewood for an option when I edit my material. To check for weight properties. Thanks!!!!

Thank you all! I just load SP3.0 and now the print selection works just fine now! Thanks.

Ok I just loaded 2009 and now I cant do print selection like I did in 2008. In 2008 when I would click on selection print it allowed me to print a desire box around anything in my drawing. Now in 2009 when I click selection print it automatically prints it doesn't give me the option to box an...

How do I make my grid be exactly on the bottom left corner of my origin and 24" x 18"? I know how to display it, but not fully customize it.

Is there any way to turn a bitmap or regular picture into a drawing so I can import it to mastercam X2 and code off of the geometry of the picture? Help!

Anyone know some quick steps to make a gear and gear threads?

Does anyone know how to insert a jpeg image into a drawing. I have pictures I want to add into my drawing can you do that?

I have a sketch I made from an existing sketch an dI want to move that sketch to a surface so I can cut into it with out having to re draw it on the surface I just want to edit the sketch plane, but you can't edit the sketch plane once you have made a sketch form an existing sketch. Help! Thanks!
