Hi everybody,
Trying to make some slots with CutExtrude+ThinFeature I'm not getting the auto fillet corners anyway. I've tried with no draft angle, diferent dimensions for the thickness and the fillet, but nothing. I've never tried this feature before, only usual extruded cuts... What is left to do in order to make it work propperly??
Thanks!
Why don't you just use the Slot tool instead?

Easy! I didn't know the tool so... thank you!
Anyway... In this particular case I'm taking proffit of the draft angle feature into the CutExtrude so I think it's a faster way... specially if I get my desired auto-fillets at the end...
It depends on whether or not you want full radius on the slots.
you can add draft in the feature

Just working now with drafted slots! -Full radius is ok-
Let's say the "angle at bottom" option is a bit hidden into the hole wizard.
Thank you Steve!
In order to use the auto-fillet corners you need something to fillet. A straight line does not give you that option. I would recommend doing what Steve Calvert suggested.
Hi Dennis,
Ok... now I see...
In this case I'll try the slot way and the other to compare.
Thank you guys!
Damn, I'll never make it to the top 10. Good job Dennis...
