Hi, I would like to sweep a slot on a cylinder that will be CNC'ed. The slot needs to be normal to the cylindrical surface as it wraps around it. I tried sweep and wrap and neither wrap normal to the surface. Closest example of what I need - Imagine as you turn the grey part, the grooves mate with the tabs on the outlet.…

Hi, I have modeled up a bathroom vanity I need to make three of on a CNC. I am using the auto layout feature to put them on the sheet goods and make a drawing. What is the best workflow to put all three vanities on as few sheets as possible? Since Auto Layout only works in part studio, I believe I need to insert three…

When machining a part with a CNC mill, sharp corners cannot be milled (due to the diameter of the drill, this actually also holds for lasercutting). The trick is to create a "deeper" radius with the same size of the drill (slightly larger), see below. But it's a drag to draw these over and over.. Is there perhaps an…

Camel is a CAM application for OnShape, implemented in FeatureScript. Use the Camel FeatureScript library to generate tool paths from a PartStudio to drive a 3-axis machine such as a CNC router. Use Camel’s companion app to download toolpaths or simply copy/paste them from the FeatureScript notices panel. Refer to the…

Hi Guys, Just wondering if any featurescript exists that can create tabs on your parts that help hold your parts to the original stock you are cutting from, similar to how Fusion360 does it? I've searched the forums and google and can't find something. It would be a great aid as we use Solidcam2019 which has no Tab…

Hi, I've been using onshape for few months now and It is a great software. I am trying to improve my workflow for routing and cutting 2d shapes in my cnc and laser cutter. For the moment I am forced to create manually the 2d views for each part, export them and edit the vector drawing to split the vectors in different…
