Hello All!
I need some help with Edge Flanges.
I finally was able to have the flanges come out by adding relief cuts, but i am still having issues.
See attached pictures.
The first picture shows what im trying to do. From the two posts i need a complete circular pattern that connects the two posts.
I was able to accomplish this using a single Edge Flange operation from the two edges, where each edge takes up half of the circle.
I was able to get the correct geometry by inserting relief cuts as shown in the 2nd picture.
The problem i am having is that where the two flanges meet in the middle of the circle i get an error. The two flanges "overlap" even though they end at the same place.
Ideally i would like to have this portion of the model to be a solid part. But i would like to get rid of the error anyway.
The error: "The Part Intersects itself after bend operations"
Is there anyway to merge these two sections of the same flange operation?
Thanks.
Looks something like this. I made this just by what I saw. Dimensions are not to be exact by any means. Tom.
