Hi everybody,
I am having trouble creating a flare on the side of a cylinder, ie a flare on a tank wall to weld a pipe onto. I have gone through the forums but can only find flares on flat surfaces. I was thinking about using a loft; however I cannot get the thin feature to work.
I have uploaded a simple model with the cylinder and the hole cut out. The picture attached describes what I want to accomplish in the end.
Thanks in advance!
Here is one simple way
1. Extrude cylinder without thin feature
2. Extrude the flare
3. Add fillet
4 Do the shell with required thickness.
