RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Acad for 3D

Lookup the following terms in help

Edgesurf, tabsurf, rulesurf.

Those should help you get started.

Pleas keep in mind, that these will not be solids. But they should
provide enough information to be machined.

Subject: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Acad for 3D

Hi,

Anyone have any hints as to how to draw a chair seat 3D using AutoCAD
where the chair seat like a country chair, is not flat, but has
depression to fit our bottom, something like the 2 photos I just
uploaded into the photos section

http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/cad_cam_edm_dro/lst?
&.dir=/&.src=gr&.begin=33&.view=t&.order=&.done=http%
3a//photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/cad_cam_edm_dro/lst%3f%26.dir=/%
26.src=gr%26.view=t

which I named temporary1 and temporary2. They are photo. no 47 and
48, the last 2.

I have thought of perhaps extruding a circular disc along a path,
then use the bottom section to subtract from a flat box, but the
curve will still not fit our nice bottom.

Thanks

Alex
