New Feature: Braided Curve
Hey all! Wanted to model some braided wires for fun, and couldn't find a custom feature to generate the braid paths. Slapped one together real quick, snag it here: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/e522ae0e05eda848c8b5a692 Eventually I'll add options for more than 3 strands (right now the logic is all kinda hard-coded for…

Most recent part studio gone - restore from history not working
I created a part yesterday and this morning it is gone. It shows up in the history along with the commands, but when I click on a history element to view it, it doesn't show anything.

LinuxCNC looks a lot like a basic Fanuc to the Creo output, but Creo has a Post editor (GPost) which has let me optimize what I do to work best with my…

However, when I try to connect any two of these blue-colored parts using revolute mates, one of the joints (circled in orange) fails to work properly. They move in a different way, losing the revolute mate-connecting the joint… Does anyone…
