Re: Ask the Reader: Should Drawing Revisions Be Letters or Numbers?

Rich Hall — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 19:12:56 -0000

I'm with Matt, we use numbers in preproduction/prototype and letters (per standard) in released production drawings. We also use EPDM which was a godsend after using another system. Revs and versions are EASY regardless of the symbol.

Re: Quick Tip #4 – Extending a Line using the Trim Entities Tool

Rich Hall — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 16:17:01 -0000

Great tip! Do you know the reason this works? Before the extend command was implemented, there was only the trim tool which was know as the trim/extend tool. The dual functionality remained even though the new extend tool was added. I only use the trim tool since it does both functions.

Re: The ‘Why’ behind the SWW (not so) special event

Rich Hall — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 22:42:34 -0000

Jeff,
Thanks for posting this. Most of us in attendance had some conversation about this subject and came to most of the same conclutions. As a single event at SWW10 this was a bit of a let down from years past, but, as a whole, the conference was a smashing success as always. As a side note for future special events, one of the reasons I go to SWW is to network. This years setup was not conducive to any type of conversation even when the band was on break due to the loudness of the background music. I am looking forward to next year and what is in store for San Antonio.

Re: How To Take A SolidWorks Assembly Top-Down In A Single 3D Sketch

Rich Hall — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 22:33:59 -0000

Did you know the singular for Peas was originally Peas and not Pea? English screwed it up because 's' on the end is plural so they had to make a singular hence pea.

Great example of a top down. Would never have thought of controlling it like this.

Re: Why you need to attend a Solidworks Tech Summit

Rod,
We'll have to see what we can do about that. It probably won't be in the near future but I think we could work something out if you like. It's only 5 hours to STL and I haven't been in a few years. I think it would be a hoot.
Later,

Paul,
Thanks for the comments and feedback. No offense was meant by the headhunter warning. In my area you have to be careful about the jobs offered and really know and trust the recruiter.

Matt,
I don't know how smart it is but it's from the heart. Children are one of Gods greatest gifts and our responsibilities should never be taken for granted. This is one of the driving forces behind my life and my drive towards education. Thanks for your comment and reading my blog.
