Hello,
I need help with milling lumber. We do a lot of counter top nosing and radius base moldings on our CNC router. Before we got TopSolid we were milling a reference board out of MDF and screwing lumber to it for our parts. We were doing this with AutoCad. I want to know an easy way of routing radius lumber with critical glue joint locations. What I mean is, we glue our lumber together and layout were our glue joints are to keep seems inline with each other for a more professional look. I want to do the same thing with TopSolid. Does anyone have any ideas on this. The only way I can think of is to Make a 3d model of our reference boards and attach lumber. But that seems like a lengthy process.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm sorry. Still missig the point of the question.
I think I understand what you want to do, but I don't see the problem.
You can just take the 3 parts from your 3D drawing and put them on the machine as an assembly, no?
Make a "mobile" "stop" so you can put your parts away from the actual stop, and keep your origin on the original stop?
Regards
Pieter
