Default Comparing Parametric Sketching Performance of Popular CAD Applications

You won't find this kind of discussion in slow eddy pay for play advertising based publications.

You will find it on my LinkedIn group.

Not sure what you meant by the above comment, but-----

I recently downloaded a free OpenScad and tried a few examples. But examples are just that. Too hard for me to get interested in.


I have a friend who is a programmer and he sorta likes that approach, but, to me, it's just like learning any other programming language. You have to be real good a rote memorization. Not to say that you don't have to do this with other CAD programs, but with them you simply have to remember where the d%^$ menu item is.
This guy likes that approach because he is very interested in 3D printing and a guy in our Arduino group just got a ROBO3D and has offered to let in circulate around the group. He finds lots of projects on thingiverse that he might want to recreate. And some of those projects do have parametic code attached. This way, my friend finds it easy to adjust the part to his needs.

---I hope that's what you are asking about.

On Tuesday, November 25, 2014 5:45:11 AM UTC-8, Terry Coombs showed he's far too stupid to be involved in any thread that has anything to do with CADCAM:

Coombs, get back on your knees and do what you do best:

Blow Mark Wieber.

"Terry Coombs" fired this volley in
:

Actually I was responding to spaco's post ... or were you also
responding to him ?


Nope, just to you. I missed the attribution; should have jumped on Spaco
instead.

This sig is a much more pleasant place, not having to see his inane and
insane posts.

What Loud means is it's much more pleasant that he doesn't have to deal with me handing him his ass over and over with facts, right Loud? :)
