.187 is NOT the same as .1875 or .1865 or .1873!!
And when you have two differently sized holes selecting
a large one with a + selection tolerance will not find the
smaller ones. But if you select a smaller one it may find the larger
ones.
Naturally these may be selected as multiple sets ...

"Mask on arc" works just fine for the non-clueless.
And nobody that does not know simple things such as
1875 > 1873 has any business pretending to be a programmer
of any sort.

Oh jeese....
dood, I for one like history based modeling. The problem lies in the
conversion programs.
If the stuff is native...screw direct modeling. A little bit is nice, it's
fast, etc...mostly good for someone who just has to drop a floor or wall.
But to model with? Nothing beats the history tree.
The problem is non-native, but the answer isn't direct modeling, it's a
better converter between systems.
But you jump all over the new buzz words you found on google today if it
makes you feel "adequate".
And screw PRO-E! The stuff is way over priced and all moduled out.
Soon it will be merged into UG like every other good software is at the
moment.
Close to 50 hits to this Jon Banquer blog page since it was posted
yesterday.
Fro those who haven't tried SpaceClaim, I highly suggest you do and
find out how easy and enjoyable 3D solid modeling really is. Everyone
in the CAD business is now rushing to copy the Push/Pull/Move user
interface that SpaceClaim and Spatial developed.

Over 100 hits to the real JB website in 48 hours which contains
absolutely no real information just like the phony JB's idiot
website. Click below and see.
No one in the CAD business cares about the Push/Pull/Move user
interface.

The Jon Banquer blog is the leading CAM-centric blog on the internet!
Are you looking for a truly independent place to discuss Mastercam and
realize that the poorly run In House Solutions, e-Mastercam forum is
made up of a clique of idiots like James Meyette, etc who often censor
and delete posts?
Instead of the massive censorship from a clique of idiots lead by a
worthless scumbag like James Meyette, you might want to try this
independent Mastercam forum instead:
http://mastercamforum.com/index.php
So far the moderator of this independent Mastercam forum has shown
he's up to the job.
> The Jon Banquer blog is the most idiotic blog on the internet!
>
If you want really good Mastercam instruction, go to the EMastercam
forum. It blows away any other Mastercam forum on the net. James
Mayette and his friends are the most knowledgable group of individuals
that you will find if you need Mastercam information.
If you go to my blog, you will be severely disappointed because I
know nothing about Cad/Cam and only copy and paste information that I
Google on the internet and then post as if they were my own thoughts.
I'm an idiot.

James Meyette works for Selway Machine tools as an applications
engineer. He does so because he can't make it working for a machining
job shop where he would crack because he can't handle pressure. Before
working for Selway as an applications engineer, James Meyette was a
Mastercam salesman for CADCAM Consulting:
At CADCAM Consulting James Meyette failed miserably and blamed his
failures on illegal Mastercam use.

To this day, Jon Banquer has more suggestions for improvements in
Mastercam than
anyone else in the Enhancements Forum on e-Mastercam.
Here is a list of original specifics on improvements badly needed in
Mastercam that you will only find on the Jon Banquer blog!

Right Jon, the "high pressure" environment of a machining job shop
where all you do is drill holes in plates unsuccessfully with worn out
Haas machines that drop tools. Now that's some boiler room pressure
right there!
When was the last time you programmed a 5 axis machine, Jon? Hell, for
that matter, when have you ever even programmed a 4 axis machine?
Also, I'm quite certain he makes more money than you.
Note that he has NEVER posted about more than 2 1/2 axes beginner
entry-level stuff. And even that confuses him so .....
See his bog.
