Do you do weldments of square structural tubing?

    I would like to talk with someone who does weldments of square
    structural tubing in their normal work. This represents 80% of my
    work (I design the structural aspects of theatrical sets), and the
    final 20% will be mechanically actuated theatrical stuff.

    When I saw the message titled "Goodby origin" I realized that I need
    to check into SolidWorks a little more before I really make the jump.
    See, I am just the kind of person to uncover bugs that others are
    perhaps not noticing because they do thing like most of the other
    users. I am hoping that talking with a person who does similar kind
    of construction will uncover issues that I won't be aware of as a
    novice with SW.

    If you would be willing to talk with me, just E-mail me you phone
    number to call via the address above (which will be abandoned in a
    month or so), or via my real e-mail... lets see how can I put this on
    the message, but hide from the spammers...

    @, but perhaps not this entire sentence) bibleonstage(DOT)com

    Thank you for the heads-up. I may contact you again once I get into
    an actual project.

    Is there a more active discussion group anywhere for Solidworks? I
    did search for a discussion group on Solidworks web site, and
    eventually found a link to one. However, there was much less activity
    there than here. On the Autodesk controled discussion group there are
    easly over 100 new messages a day. They've even loosened the controls
    to allow some pointed discussion lately.

    My posts to Usenet (done via Google's group site) take around 1 day
    to appear on the list. Although, some people seem to see my messages
    before I do, because there is often a few replies when it does appear
    (I wonder why?). Of course, using the usenet also takes extreme
    measures to hide from spammers.

    I find it hard top believe this is the most active discussion
    area.... any others?

    hello Smiley,
    Just though I would butt in to tell you the best way to access this group
    is to sign up to a news server and use Outlook express or similar-your
    messages will appear in minutes-google is useful to search but way too slow.
    This group is pretty dead on weekends but I think has about 70 posts per day
    during the US week... at the moment SW users are a fairly contented mob
    whereas Inventor sufferers have been quite vocal......
    There is another place where many people seem to go and can be found at
    www.eng-tips.com ..has a slightly different flavour to this
    group...probably more expert users here.....[.no I am not one : )]
    cheers
