Thanks for the responses, they are much appreciated. The reason I model some of the perforations is so I can create realistic renderings, or to help colleagues understand all the components in an assembly. I do use notes similar to hendersdc example, and this is an effective way to simplify...
I'm wondering if there is a good way of creating expanded metal and perforated plate in Solidworks? I'm currently using extrude cut then fill pattern and making the pattern larger so there aren't as many cuts, but this method slows down my computer.
Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly...
