    What do you use to manage File and Folder Versions? (Other than renaming versions...)

    So as a programmer, I typical version files with a source control system. This does work for Alibre files, but is a little more work that I'd like at times. I have not found a piece of software that I've thought of and don't know if it is out there and I missed it, or if no one has built it...

    Simulating cable over pulley?

    I'm working on a system that takes a pivot bracket to cable, then through pulleys and back to a pivot bracket. This is a single cable and pulley system, so no mechanical advantage and displacement ratios. Just a distance from the first pivot to tangent of first pulley and the tangent of last...
