Drill... analyzing parts

I am wanting to drill 3 5mm holes with a 5mm bit. The animation worked last week.
When I attempt this now I am offered select or select matching sizes. When I attempt this a small screen pops up which says analyzing parts…
I have not been able to pick a hole, nor an oversize hole.
Any thoughts?

try deleting and re-creating the drill operation. if that doesn’t work, please try to attach your .kmz here. Email it to me if that fails. thanks

Hi Stewart,
Recreated and merged just because I thought it might make the difference.

I deleted only the drill op and re-created it

THank you Stewart.
I tried that but no change for me. Recreate is using the garbage bin and then picking the drill again?

much apprecaited.

yeah, just bin the old drill ops and re-add to use the new features. did the kmz I dropped here work for you?

It did!
Still figuring out things like drill beyond (z extend) the bottom of material. I am sill getting way too deep.

THank you I am going to take a run at actually cutting this thing.

Hey there,

To change the z-extend, you need to modify the drill through param on the drill operation. it overrides the z-through set in the left tab.

Will give that a try thankyou.

I think I will redraw my propeller as well, all sorts of weirdness. Pretty sure that artifacts got carried over from an earlier import I modified.
