Tom, can't thank you enough for your unsurpassed incomparable instructional vids. Just lost my programmer.. thanks to you, I may not lose my mind as well. A great gift from one who is equally gifted. Thank you!
By far the best video instructor I've come across....very clear with instruction.......would like to see this part machined from this model you created.....outstanding work my man
Thank you Tom you do an excellent job of teaching this old guy. You are like the Bob Ross of mastercam. I’m just waiting to hear you say and we’re going to put a little tree here. and a little bird over here LOL Don’t change a thing your soft voice and your patients teach well 👍
Thanks Tom for your videos they have been a great help to me. I am Mexican but I speak a little English. I hope you continue to upload more videos of master cam x7 greetings and blessings.
Im switching from Surfcam to Mastercam, very painful to learn new system but you explain very well and at a good speed! Thanks for taking the time to build these.
I really appreciate your help here. New software for me and I'm telling you I am beyond pissed off and frustrated rn!!!! I've spent the last 8 Years on fusion 360 and going from modeling from that to this is just BS! Doing cad in Mastercam is a total headache! Alot of people seem to disagree but I think it's because they're so use to this that they're experiencing what I am now. I absolutely appreciate fusions way of doing things! And it's only a couple of hundred dollars a year compared to thousands for this crap. I'd rather stick to modeling In fusion and maybe give the cam a shot here. Like most people they will model in SOLIDWORKS then Program in Mastercam. Seems really stupid... Fusion is all in one. Cad, cam, drawings, renders, analyzing, all kinds of crap. Just not as powerful when it comes to cam as some of the top names.
Hello Tom very good your instructions at MASTERCAM. From what location do you teach your classes ... what is the country and the city? Greetings. Edd São Paulo Brazil
Quick question, I learned how to draw on AutoCAD so that's how my brain works. When learning how to draw in 3D in AutoCAD I learned to draw a feature, like a plug, the reverse of a drilled hole, or a cube, the opposite of the pocket and in AutoCAD verson 2012 for example, the method of making a drilled hole in a part, or a pocket, you would place it where you wanted your feature, and use the command "remove from", select the base part, "what" and select the plug. I was curious if there was such a thing in MC? Not that it's necessarily a better way of doing it or anything, it's just that the way I learned to draw in 3D, that's the way I would think do it first. Also, in creating a pocket, I might generate a filleted rectangle on one edge and mirror it to the other side of the base part and then remove them both from the base part. MC seems to be incredibly smart and user friendly which often means several ways of doing the same thing. Is there such a way of doing what I described in MC? Again just out of curiosity. PS, thank you for the awesome tutorials.
It would be nice to know which settings you have activate, not all of us users have the same settings visible as you. It’s really confusing when your icon is not in front of you. you would have to search for it and then what you mention would be applicable, just FYI
vary nice video. the only problem I had was, when making the endpoint lines to make the rectangle on the front or right sides. the line wasnt snaping to the face of the part. it was going inside of the part on the corner rads. i just found another intersection point to make my lines. Geting the same results as you. So not that big of a problem really.
Great! Make sure that you are in 2D mode when trying to snap to existing geometry that is not on the same plane. At the bottom of the screen you can toggle 2D to 3D. Thanks for the feedback Greg.
Tom Stikkelman Thank you for your videos! They go over a lot in a short time and your methods are very logical and easy to use! If you ever have a chance to, I would love to see a video about sweeping and lofting. Again Thank you sir!
Tom, can't thank you enough for your unsurpassed incomparable instructional vids. Just lost my programmer.. thanks to you, I may not lose my mind as well. A great gift from one who is equally gifted. Thank you!
Thank you very much, I'm Brazilian and there is no video in my language, but your speech is clean and I can understand. thank you.

Lol. Thanks for the feedback Kurt.

Thanks respected Tom for your videos they have been a great help to me. I am India but I speak a small English.
Nice bro! I'm using Mcam X9 and have been tearing my hair out on learning how to do solids. This helped alot 👍
Make sure when you do the offsets to select the inner line, if you do the outer line it will only go to the depth from the top to the fillet.
New to master cam but not to solid modeling, your video was great
Thanks for the video. It is really good explanation.
Thankyou very much Tom stikkelman, we need more video from you
this video is incredible clear

would like a video with a lathe part being drawn with a hex and with stock set up.any chances on that?
Excellent I understand easily thank u boss
Why click 8 edges? Select the 2nd icon (surface) instead of 'edge' before you fillet, then just select the top.

Oto
you have a gift for teaching, thank very much. I would like to see how to draw bolt circle pattern
Thank You Tom! Could you explain me when we choose transform a contour (16:34 at the video) where i can see a direction dx dy and dz?
Thank You Tom, that was great !!

Yes, you can extrude, mirror and Boolean remove both from the original. You can add or combine solids as well..

Well I'll be. You are right, I was in 3D. I changed it to 2D and it worked exactly like in your video.
Thanks alot !
Sir please add more video how to select model chine part easily
Loved....Beautiful...thankfuly
Are you planing to do a video on how to machine this part?
Not sure yet. I will be covering pocketing next.
Allright same difference I gues
Tom Stikkelman Thank you for your videos! They go over a lot in a short time and your methods are very logical and easy to use! If you ever have a chance to, I would love to see a video about sweeping and lofting. Again Thank you sir!
thank your video,at 11:47 I don't fillet by face face fililer with radius 0.25, but radisu 0.125 is oke. why
good ok you R Modi for mastr cam
very nice video
I'm very grateful..Tom
