CAD. Cadcadcad.
I'm currently in the process of making a pair of speakers and I am in the need of someone who can draw me something fairly basic (it's pretty much a 16cm cube with a single hole in it) in cad from a sketch with measurements, so i can send it off to the wood cutting chappies.
If anyone can do it i would be eternally grateful, I can't offer much but there would be beer tokens and bumhugs in it for them.

Re: CAD. Cadcadcad.
I've messed about with it before, but can it export everything as a cad file?

Re: CAD. Cadcadcad.
I have a copy of some expensive Auto CAD software on my work PC but have no idea how to use it.
This probably doesn't help.

Re: CAD. Cadcadcad.
Hi Sol
You will want the file saved in DXF Format, this is the most common file format and can be used in any CAD program, I have AutoCAD 2012 (legitimate, as it's part of my job) so if you need anything doing send me details or a picture/sketch and i'lll send you want you need.
Are you looking at getting this milled out on a CNC machine or you just need a technical drawing for the woodworkers?

Don't do it Sol - it's just a ploy so he can send you pictures of his penis.TheJockGit wrote:Hi Sol... sent you a PM, need an e-mail or something to send you the files....
If you're curious though and want to save time, just google "anteater in a ginger wig".

Re: CAD. Cadcadcad.
pffft... I think poor Sol has had enough exposure, he had to sit next to me at the last Proflan, poor sod.
I've e-mailed you the files, if there is anything else you need (like pictures of my penis or distended anus) just ask..
