Hi all,
I am having trouble thickening a surface (left hand side), I have tried using a ruled surface combined with offset surface but then this doesn't give me the option of filleting as it is still a surface not a solid, I have also tried a loft to an offset surface however even after adjusting the connectors I have had no luck.
any help would be great!
Thanks,
Harry
Does this work for you?.. I did a Surface-Knit then a Thicken. File attached.
To an extent yes but sorry I should have been more clear, were my split lines are with the different appearance surface I am going to extrude cut, also the laminar surfaces at the top I am going to want to fillet to make all surrounding edges of the part smooth
I have done this however the filleting is a problem as they are two different bodies
Did not finish it for you, only looked at the problem.
I would start by knitting the two surfaces and take it from there, have a look at the attached part.
Unfortunately many of the top edges wont let me fillet because they are laminar when I thicken the surface after knitting it
I have done this however the filleting is a problem as they are two different bodies
When I have tried to do this I get a zero thickness geometry does this happen for you too?
should not happen if you knit the surfaces first before the thicken. Instead of thicken them separately.
Im not to sure how to combine them after knitting them sorry,
Have a look at the attached part. Is this close to what you want?
Thats great thanks so much!
Ill have a look through the design tree to teach myself how to resolve this in the future
Thanks again!!!
