I have a couple of parts that another group has made which is killing my computer. I noticed that the file sizes were quite large and started looking at the history tree to see how the parts were modeled. Now I am certainly not the most efficient or clever modeler out there but I feel like I have been around the block a few times. Is there any justifiable reason to create a single model with ~400 features in the history tree. I also have one that has over 1000 features in the history tree. It is a molded part and does have a number of details to it but I don't think it requires that many features. I think the feature count can be significantly reduced which would also make the model more managable. If you do have a part, I would certainly like to see a screen shot of it to compare against. I am going through these parts now, looking to see what I can do to preserve the design intent while reducing the number of features.
Thoughts???
