Re: Keeping an Eye on the Big Picture

Madison, Allen (plus anyone else who has a similar process) -

I'm not an engineering mentor, but I am trying to resolve issues around organizing the CAD files, designing a process to maintain good master files, etc.

I like the idea of sharing the CAD live via the projector. We've also toyed with the idea of having monitors in our machining area so folks can more easily refer to the design in real time.

Can either of you share how you use cloud sharing and Google Drive specifically to organize the CAD files. One of the things the engineer-types have commented is that there isn't a way to view the files in Google Drive in native format.

I keep thinking Google drive should work. I think there is also an Autodesk cloud solution, but I don't know much about that.

Thanks in advance.

POLLY
