My assembly features does not have feature scope in it or am I in the wrong spot

Sorry to ask a basic question If I'm working in an assembly and alter one of the parts I.E cut a hole in it can I refelct that change back to the original parts model.

I am using a copy of 2007 SW. Will my copy of 2007 read 2011 SW drawings. I need to use some of the parts drawen in 2011 for an assembly in SW2007. If I purchase 2011 can I run it on windows XP

Is anyone running SW 2007 on the Windows 7 platform right at the moment we are using XP with no problems.

We have asked our suppliers but to no avail, This division of Fairy was based in Canada. Its an 8in dia tube we are guessing some type of agricultural callout. Finding anything this size is turning into quite a task.

Has anyone see this material before HA.4.24 It is an aluminun called out on a drawing of the 60's vintage by Fairy Aviation.

Funny you should say that but we are installing a western Gear hoist in a Sikorsky and still may I add no luck on a replacment cutter. Is it legal to opperate with only a hand held cutter?

Does any one out there run any rescue hoist's on helicopters principly an older Western Gear Corp winch on Sikorskys. We are having problems locating the Guillatine and squib (cable cutter) for our winches. Any one know of any alternatives?

We just recently fabricated a similar unit it was only about 4" high. You could use the same line of thought for making your mount. It was fabricated from sheet and tig welded..

Thanks Kwan I'll have a look at ANC-5.

Does anyone have any spec's for this material R301W I belive it was a Reynolds product. It was used by Repbublic Aviation in the late 40's. What I'm looking for is a material to replace the 301.

Has any one out there used the Library exports from matweb for cosmos works? My question is can this service be used for cosmos express as well?

Good Grief there might be light at the end of the tunnel afer all!

Thanks for the tip Scott I'll give it a crack, for this application I'll be using it in the part level.

Sorry to ask such a basic question but this wasn't covered in my level 1 solid works class. How do you weld pipes together for example, if you have a pipe or tube 12 ins long and weld another pipe in the center of it at 90deg? How is the weld performed or shown.
