      <p class="para_topic">Mold Wizard also provides a standard parts approach for creation of work piece, sub-inserts, and electrodes. The added benefit of using a standard part as a work piece is that subcomponents can be attached, and pocket-cutting bodies with detailed features can be included. Click the WorkPiece Library button to display the Standard Part Management dialog box. </p>
      <p class="para_topic">There are several configuration and dimension options on the work piece insert that can be set:</p>
      <ul>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item">Rectangle or round</p>
         </li>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item">The radius of each corner of a rectangle insert</p>
         </li>
         <li>

         </li>
      </ul>
      <p class="para_topic">After creating a work piece insert, you select Cavity Core, Cavity Only, or Core Only from the Work Piece Dimensions dialog box, and set the work piece insert as core or cavity.</p>
