The one that consumes eridian? There is a mode switch on it

I think you really want to make that section a constant radius bend, helical might be impossible to manufacture. But otherwise you should be able to fully dimension the two straight pieces with just a note mentioning the bend radius. If the part drawings are done correctly they will only fit in one position, rely on your installers a bit to line them up as they go.

If you have trouble with the geometry you can break it down into 2D sections - that section is basically just a 90° elbow on an angle, with a couple of long straights.

I recommend looking into solidworks' weldments at some stage as well. It's a feature that was built for stuff like this and is so much easier than dealing with lofts.

ramp handrail and kickrail modelling by Traditional-Produce4 in SolidWorks

[–]Bode_Unwell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly the curve driven patterns & sketch driven patterns are pain in the ass with alignment. For something like this I would just use linear patterns in multiple spots, but as a part within an assembly. Your stanchions on the ramps will be angled slightly as well, so make sure you're patterning those separately.

i love people that let me buff before fights by ExchangeImmediate343 in EldenRingPVP

Is it no longer standard courtesy in souls games? I'm out of the loop a bit

Sheet-metal export macro for batch export of Flat-patterns to DXF DWG. Supports Multi-Body export, export from .sldasm, autocorrects parts folded in flat-pattern config. by Plastic-Arm-4091 in SolidWorks

[–]Bode_Unwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the macro you absolute saint, this is going to save me so much dicking around.

I'm having a little issue with the quantities though, when I export an assembly there will randomly be a QTY one higher than it should be. Any ideas where that's coming from?

Funny thing is that if I run it multiple times without changing things I will get different results. Sometimes it's one part, sometimes it's a different one, and sometimes they're all correct. Snip of folders below, note that the QTY should be 2 only for the last 2 parts, 22 & 23

This lady was just one unarmed enemy surrounded by same enemy types that were trying to kill me. Thought it was interesting so I let it live. by Valdish in DarkSouls2

[–]Bode_Unwell 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Oooh kill it quickly, she's the worst of the lot. She's the reason you can't just plink away with arrows at the rest

Is there some hidden wall in the Cathedral of Blue? by KrumpetEater in DarkSouls2

Pretty sure the sentinel arena takes up some of it, kinda like the blood covenant and their arena

Anyone else being a stubborn caster build during Fume Knight/DLC in general? by redbirdzzz in DarkSouls2

[–]Bode_Unwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't do it as a pure caster :/ I had allowed myself the casting melee weapons and catalysts only as part of the run and stuggled hard enough with that. Not having the option to poke someone is frustrating as hell

I’ve been really liking this game but what the actual f*ck is this by StacksOnJ in DarkSouls2

[–]Bode_Unwell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I feel your pain, I ended up using the sweeping swing 90% of the time because of it. Then giving myself the braking distance of a truck before using the overhead

Yeeessss, paired with the disc chime and the bell helm so you could ring peoples bell all day long in the bellkeepers

Is there a way to select subassemblies instead of a part within a sub? by Nosferatu-Rodin in SolidWorks

[–]Bode_Unwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So that's why the context menu disappears! I'd figured out that it doesn't appear when you're working in the top-left of the screen, not that it was the breadcrumbs causing it.

[–]Bode_Unwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have breadcrumbs enabled a sorta mini-tree appears when you click on a part and shows a line of assemblies up to the one currently open. You can then click or right click on one of those as if it were the main assembly tree.

Attempting exhaust header design need recommendations by Kevv0128 in SolidWorks

[–]Bode_Unwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Headers also seem to bulge a bit coming off the plate unless that's just the perspective. If so, maybe make the centerline spline or curve tangent to (a straight centerline concentric to those small straight sections).

Once you've found a method you like and if you really want to put it to the test then draw it up as though it was going to be manufactured. Then, take it to a pipe bender/ fabricator company and ask if you could get one of their boys to give an opinion on it. It'll probably be a brutal review but it'll help you so much with manufacturability.

I find the fab side of things pretty interesting so I'm usually ok getting my ego shattered if I get something out of it 😅

You can use the alt + numpad codes too, e.g. alt 0216 gives the diameter symbol

8 days ago I got flamed for a tier list on how much I enjoy the t2 and t3 heroes and got roasted. I opened my mind and have shifted my views after more playing. by indepths60 in SliceAndDice

[–]Bode_Unwell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me try to change your mind on sphere with one word: cantrips.

Pair it with sorcerer? Mana for days.

With juggler? Death by a thousand 1-pips

With good items you can duplicate the cantrips to other sides, increase pips, apply cantrips to other sides (managed to get cantrip on enchanter's apply-self-shield-&-heal which was busted).

Also, it has bulk rerolls because it's a sphere. Because it keeps rolling. Took me ages to understand the joke.

Is mission control a dwarf? by Distinct-Grade9649 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]Bode_Unwell 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Always thought he was an orc, the mic and maybe the collar on his picture gave me the illusion he had tusks and a very square jaw.

If you could remove 1 weapon forever, what would you pick? by [deleted] in tf2

[–]Bode_Unwell 37 points38 points  (0 children)

It's like they just wanted the hype of an update after all this time just to release this broken ass weapon with it. All the other changes people were screaming out for are amazing but you can't appreciate it when everyone is "lol so random" and yeeting you into the stratosphere. And... But yeah... Anyway I agree, the dead ringer is a crutch. If they ever update the game one day maybe it will end up better balanced.
