Re: I have three objects touching (intersecting). How to delete intersection?

Thank you for all your help. I got this far (attached file). A couple of things "look" wrong to me. 1) The sketch looks deformed. 2) The diameter of the cylinder is smaller than it should be. The sketch is 8" wide and 6" high. The diameter I calculated is 2.58627" to get a 8...

Re: I have three objects touching (intersecting). How to delete intersection?

Hello, Trying to recreate the project. "I can't get the construction map to display on the face. I have to rotate the cylinder to the top. I then have to create the sketch on a XZ plane. I can not move or transform the sketch to place it in the construction area for the curve map. What did I do...

Re: I have three objects touching (intersecting). How to delete intersection?

Thank You.
I am watching the video now.

But how was the sketch modified from plate_before.png to plate_after.png and made into a single object?

I have three objects touching (intersecting). How to delete intersection?

Example: FROM THIS plate_before.png TO THIS: plate_after.png Then turn the after into a single object and wrap it around the surface of a cylinder? T...

Re: two lines and one arc connect end points one object

I did every thing that was done in the tutorial plus some other things.

What did I not constrain and what does it need to be constrained to?

Thank You

Re: two lines and one arc connect end points one object

Thank You, some of your suggestions helped. I got thru it. It looks like it is supposed to. The parametric aspect of the corner lug does not work. When I resize the hole the lug goes haywire and if I "ctrl+z" It does not go back to where it started. I have to go back to the point before sk...

In the tutorial, the video does not show him manually connecting the lines.
How to connect the lines?
How to set it where it does it automatically?
