How do I save an assembly as a multi-body part?
I have an assembly that is made up of multiple parts, some of them are hollow. I want to make a cavity for this assembly to nest into. The nest will be 3D printed from ABS.
Should I save my assembly as a multi-body part, then create the cavity? Will this fill the voids in the hollow parts?
I keep looking for the steps to save the assembly as a multi-body, but so far I'm stumped.
Just do a save as, then change the file type to Part. From there you will have other options.
It will not fill in gaps for you, but you can combine bodies that touch or overlap. Depending on the geometry this can be easy or a little more involved.
