Hello,
I followed the wrong path in building 2 hinged parts onto a structure.
The one plane with the forked cut out (Plane5_gaffel_uitsnede) should move down the design tree. Because then it would cut both forks cleanly. Am I correct here?
How do I achieve this? I want as clean as possible design tree. No suppressed features or planes.
I tried adding a new plane to the end of the design tree and copying down the existing sketch onto it. Then make a new cut from the sketch and suppressing the old plane. Features start disappearing when I do that. How can I reshuffle my design tree?
I'm using SW-2016 and I build the structure with custom made pipe sizes (4" and 2.5"). I'm not sure this will show properly.
Thanks.
I would suggest you to remodel this truss as there are many features which can be done using one single sketch. The design intent is not good. And to add, many sketches are not defined fully.
I won'r be rather using a 4" long length inside of putting up joints and would make sure that 2.5" is not projecting out.
I would keep the origin in the center such that I can utilize the three default planes rather than creating new.
There could be many better ways of doing it but here is my quick model. I had used only 3 sketches in the model.
Give one more shot to your model and try to make it better else you can delete that sketch/feature and fix the relation of child sketches/features. And then re-add that sketch/feature in the end.
