If you get this working, please let me know how! So far all of my experiments with CFD have resulted in failures to generate meshes from models or failures for simulations to converge. It’s an enormously frustrating learning curve.fluidity wrote: ↑Wed Jun 05, 2019 6:32 pmOk, answering my own question:

Just ordered the first parts for a CNC table I'll build soon.
Steppersonline for my stepper motors, drivers, interface board and water cooled spindlemotor.
Robotdig for splined pulleys, timing belts, linear bearings.
I haven't progressed further with investigating the simulation tools yet.tkaraszewski wrote: ↑Sun Jun 09, 2019 7:10 pmIf you get this working, please let me know how!

A good alternative to the software packages above for this project or for any similar projects in the future is SimWorks:fluidity wrote: ↑Wed Jun 05, 2019 6:32 pmOk, answering my own question:

I've not tried actually using it(simulation SW) yet but I use openscad for my design which uses oriented ajoining triangles to form meshes. Other CAD may use "solids" etc. I can tell you though, that FREECAD will convert back and forth between meshes and solids. I think the Autodesk group uses solids. Meshes are skins with inside and outside defined by the rotation order of the facet corner coordinates that define it. Though it might seem tricky for a klein bottle, any practical one will have thickness so what we think of as the inside is still a surface exterior of the space within the wall thickness.tkaraszewski wrote: ↑Sun Jun 09, 2019 7:10 pmIf you get this working, please let me know how!
