Yes i got pro in this moment, I got Hard Disk crash 2 weeks ago and reinstall complete system from scratch http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=79&t=54625#p495280

I use that regular Substract tool

edit: LOL Im wrong all the time, is Subtract tool, sorry

Yes understand that, but now I think I was do something wrong, because now this substract tool work even if I join that elements in each other.

Thanx for this, I must figure out what I do wrong before.

Maybe is ths better, I make something similar, and Is close to this what I try, normal need fine-tunning, but how I engraved that patern on gray object (I must flip around for 180 deg) with usual tools not go, becasue one object is not solid.

Must chek if is any plugin for non-solid objects.

@Box you made my day with this post in positive term.

Yes maybe is wrong but I do this favor for my battle pal from old contry And if he say Imperial I will do that, he got painting studio, and sometimes must rebuild door, windows, shelves etc. And this is one of that cases, but this time work for for himself adaptation of his old house. This project is non profit, OK. must confess I will get few beers and chicken wings when he arrive next year

Thx again for nice debate

Yes like TIG says, no mater if is AU in mertic system today, I doubt the old-school people use metric, and in fact they stil use miles and all other from imperial system.

@emarald15 Thank you, are you shure is on last CatchUp ? Becasue I cant find in last ?

thx

edit: Is that SuSolid ?

Hi again. I got problem, Im from metric country, and not familiar with Inch or imperial system.

So if I draw line long 60" and second must be 7'/4 what is that ? is that 7 inch and one quater like 7 1/4 or something else ? and how I can tell SUp to make that line?

I try with 7'4 and not OK is too long, than I use 0,740' and it look OK. but Im not shure if I doin right, because later I must measure that and make blueprint.

and another thing, I use Entity Info and for 60" got 5,000' Is possible to template make this ? I use Engineering - Feet template.

Or just make on metric and later put-correct measure by hand ?

Thank you.
