"You'll have to chalk this one up to lessons learned the hard way! Never, ever create your CAD models at any other scale other than 1 to 1. Drawings of these models can be scaled to what ever is needed but the models are always done at actual size.…"

  • Duane,

    I have a client in Chicago seeking a Mechanical Project Engineer with strong SolidWorks skills. They would like someone with experience designing products where aesthetics are involved.

    If you are interested in hearing more please send me an email with your contact information to pauls@sriusa.biz.

    Thanks,

  • Thanks Duane,

    That is good advice and I do all my work at 1 to 1. This was an assembly that I picked up from the user library. It is a drawing of a car that I would like to use in one of my assemblies.

  • Depends on how effective each individual is at the assigned task. To me, it's logical assigning someone to do what their specialty would be. CAD operaters are very efficient at "materializing" an idea and engineers have the idea of what to do with the materials. Seems it would be more efficient to keep them separate. Each project has it's own context.
