Is there a setting,other than shortcuts? Thank you.

Version 2005, yes I know it's old, hope to upgrade in a few months once some very needed funds come in. Used Solid Works years ago but don't remember all I used to know. Are all cutouts, protrusions, etc., first created in sketch mode or is there a way to pick cutout, pick plane and create...

Don't have access to the readme file. Only have one install file on the CD which is 526+kb. Does the file say anything about the Microsoft framework.net file? Thank you.

In the process of designing a push-block type conveyor line and would like some input regarding electrostatic discharge. Pallets, what type of material would be best. Is u.h.m.w. or polypropylene suitable? What about wear strip material. A little feedback to get the discussion going. Thanks.

Hi Tmoose, Not sure this is the figure I'm looking for since my threaded block is not coming up against a stop after which the tension would be induced. Hi Greg, The 75lbs. is after the spring is compressed. It will start at about 16lbs. and finish at 75lbs. Thanks

Can anyone tell me what the inside dimensions are on a 10" x 2.886 x .526 pc. of structural channel. Is there somewhere on the internet that lists these as well as for other sizes? Thanks everyone.

Thanks for the "tips". I figured out the fixed was giving me the mate errors. The planes are acting o.k. now. Not sure what was causing it. Not sure how to take the training question. There was nothing in my post except questions for which I needed answers. That's what this site is for. Have...

Two problems. First,creating an assembly and for some reason the assembly planes are not in one place but are spread out over a large area. Second, the first part I've inserted will not let me apply mates. I'm trying to mate a part plane with an assembly plane that I've inserted. Doesn't matter...

Tryed that also with no success.
