Nice print, but is this not in the same league as 3d printing for food stuffs? As in it’s not hygienic and not possible to sterilize? Those ridges are bacteria breeding grounds!

I’m on a rather old version of Solidworks, for various reasons, but had hoped for some improvement by now.

Although, I’m not surprised. Many, if not all of the ‘premium’ CAD and CAM software I have used have no multi-threading either.

I’m on a 7 year old laptop, i7-7500U CPU, 32gb RAM and run Solidworks in a VM as I’m also running Linux.

It handles parts fine, but struggles a bit with very large assemblies and rendering on surfaces. This I assume is the lack of dedicated GPU.
