Friday Rants on PTC/User were the Bomb-Diggity! Now, my rants will quickly be shuffled off the back corner of PTC.com, never to be seen again.

My rant today is: Why does SolidWorks get special mention on McMaster-Carr part files? I know why......I am just ranting!

Have a good weekend fellow Creo-tians

    Uhmm my guess might be posting at such an hour may inhibit others from seeing it until the dreaded "Monday"?

    I don't know, just throwin it out there.... and if you're like me on Monday... well....enough said.

    I have a love/hate relationship with McMaster.

    Their screw models are just god awful!

    It's Monday.  Enough said.

      On a positive note...I have the same L/H relationship with MMC too....screws especially as you said.

      Yes, Monday.....onward to slay the Design Dragons.

      I do understand about SW.  It is the low end denominator.

      My complaint is... if you're gonna put some effort into providing a model, do it reasonably right!

      Like the thing about the screws, the drives (philips/hex) are actually pretty nice but making copied offset slanted disks for threads?  Come on!

      I'd have three words:  YOU ARE FIRED!

        Probably because Solidworks is a better system and more and more people are using it because it doesn't have such a steep learning curve as Creo.

        Learning curve is a non-issue for anyone that's going to use the software (any software) day in and day out... it's just a sales tactic.
