3d printing

Hi , simple question, do we have some 'dark mode' in onshape ?
Hi , simple question, do we have some 'dark mode' in onshape ? (As white screen puts a lot of stress on eyes). I've tried a few chrome extensions but they are not working for me. Thanks.
[FeatureScript] Creating randomized voids in order to strengthen 3D prints
Inspired by https://reprapltd.com/fibre/, I made a FeatureScript which does something similar: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/b95216af1e90e786deb23796/w/2ecd2d07e99b4ff6ba9897e3/e/13de5bd86cc0b577c88d0f8c The idea is that a user could draw a volume inside a 3D print and use this to strengthen that volume. Users can…
Planetary Gears - Is this offset correct?
I just used a Feature Script to generate a Planetary Gear. I also designed one by myself based on the Spur Gear Feature script. Both show the same effect. There's an offset between the Sun and Planet gear, but there's no offset between the Planet and Ring gear. SunTeeth=9, PlanetTeeth=9, RingTeeth=27, Is this correct from…
OnShape and 3d Printing
Greetings I have been using OnShape and simply love it. Does anyone have any experience with the "SnapMaker 350" 3d Printer with OnShape? Appreciate the feedback.
Lesson Idea 5: 3D Print Spinning Tops
Happy Wednesday everyone! Here is a fun idea to design at home and then 3D print. I'd love to hear how you plan to teach remote/hybrid classes with hands on components. Curriculum Idea: Students design, 3D print, and test spinning tops Topic area: Design for 3D printing, Physics Description: Assign students the task of…
Can we carve, emboss on curved surface ( not cylindrical... , but a manually constructed surface )
Can we carve, emboss, draw or extrude on a curved surface ( not cylindrical surface ... , but a manually constructed surface ) ? Thanks.
Hi , Is there any rigging tool available in onshape ? i.e. to make statues , animals and human faces

Estes Rocket Challenge
This project has students use OnShape to design model rockets. We 3D print completed rockets and launch them. I have students to their initial rocket designs using OpenRocket. This free software is easy to use and helps students make aerodynamically stable rockets. I have students work alone if we have small class sizes.…
Cube Puzzle Project
This is a classic CAD and woodworking project. It is the first project I have my students do. We begin the project by having students build cube puzzles using 1g interlocking cube blocks. These can be found online from many science supply or general retailers. I have students then design each part in OnShape. I show the…
Export .stl from sheet metal flat?
I'd like to be able to export an .stl file from the sheet metal flat view so I can 3d print a foldable design. Right now I can export a .dxf file and create a new part by extruding it but that seems like unnecessary extra steps. Anyone else try to do this? Is there a better way?
