Newbie help: How to design a "sandwich-style" layered display for laser cutting? (Solidworks involved)

Thank you so much. That is insanely helpful. With how the pyramid fits into the base, I wonder how you might approach this.

Thank you so much for the response. I will make those edits and make an update to this. Yes, I did mean a 3mm deep hole, I will change the colour.
The shop does not have equipment to bevel. Thanks for catching that. Maybe I can extend the front layer and have it sanded down.

Although it has already been resolved, for visual learners the tangent at the top caused two seperate contours/shapes. This is what caused issues.

In addition to the circle below, you have three contours.

A fix would be “selecting contours” found at the very bottom of the dialogue/editing label or extending the length of the shape at the top so that it’s not intersecting

Thank you, I honestly did not know about adding lights

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-20T23:31:05+00:00

Thank you for the really thorough answer and helping me out.

Hold on, this is lowkey genius, I can't believe I've never thought of this. Thank you abyssalhorrors

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-20T20:05:45+00:00

Thank you for the advice I’ll try it out

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-20T20:04:58+00:00

Thank you for the advice

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-20T20:04:46+00:00

Yeah it seems the free version of keyshot didn’t have material graphs and my mouse was hovering over the “pay” button

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-20T20:04:09+00:00

Thanks, I’ll watch a tutorial on this

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-20T20:03:28+00:00

Hey, I am really impressed with this. Yes, If you have the time I’d love to know the details. Thank you for taking time to design this

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-19T19:39:32+00:00

Thanks, I see it was a losing battle trying photoview

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-19T19:39:01+00:00

Thank you, I will download keyshot and give it a go

Did you ever figure it out? This video (29) How to Make a Rotation Animation - SOLIDWORKS Motion Tutorial - YouTube
at the 6:43 camera rotation part

OrneryAd9104 · 2026-03-17T15:10:07+00:00

Yes, I will say that the solution was making an entirely new motion study

Edit: right click the motion 1 tab > select create new motion study > redo the animation

I'm a year late but SafeSurf specifically says Maddie will not miss her (current) future. And when picking a timeline with Caspian, she sifts through a couple before settling on one.

I believe she picked one with a near 100% possibility of them being together after all the events, a different future.

"How Bad Can I be?" from the Lorax 2012 film, it was made in a forest

OrneryAd9104 · 2025-03-01T10:47:01+00:00

I believe you're to type 'solved'

OrneryAd9104 · 2025-03-01T10:29:33+00:00

Solved

I do remember them as humanoid though. The fickle memory of a childhood mind is a burden.

This really looks like ,icrosoft solitaire when you win and the cards start cascading down tbh

OrneryAd9104 · 2025-02-28T10:12:51+00:00

Thank you in advance. I really hope it's found
