Pie Cut for Your Thoughts?
So, the other day, I'm working on this pie cut problem. So far, I can print hundreds of these degreed pie cuts assemble them into a manifold and retrieve the data to create a 3d file which represents the mock up that I have made. But, what if, I wanted to draw up a 3d file which represented a possible manifold configuration, and then print exactly the number of pie cuts to create that specific item. Work Flow: Method #1 Print hundreds of various pie cuts --> Build a mockup --> Test a mock up --> Build a new mockup ... --> Convert mock up to 3d file --> ???? --> Profit. OR Method #2 Create a 3d file --> Print Exactly the pieces required by mockup --> Test mock up --> Adjust 3d file... --> Print difference of pieces --> ???? --> Profit. Both of these workflows are useful. But from a Solidworks perspective the first method is much easier to accomplish. And from a time use perspective the second method saves valuable
