Dressing Up “Using our All-Around Good Looks”

IE 1225Tutorial 3.7R. Lindeke

Set the Lines at the Complement of the Angles Shown at this step in the tutorial: (86.538 & 83.077 respectively)

While Profiling – Use Computed Angles – Set Lengths for the ‘top-arc’

Note the Construction Elements (circles and lines)

Be careful while working it out – Set the Angles as CONSTRAINTS after profiling (last to be sure)!

Seriously COOL! – But Reverse Direction!

Hum … Better save here – too much time is

invested!

After Mirroring: (about ZX Plane)

Build Constrained Rectangle – ‘Groove’ it using H-Axis

Making another Circular Pattern: Pick the Pocketed Slot as Object – and Top face of the Pad of the (original) tooth as reference element

Build this sketch – Then Quick Trim to get Pocket Patterns – Pocket up to last – And Mirror about ZX plane

For the “Keyed Hole” – sketch the circle – add a rectangle – constrain it then quick trim the circle inside the rectangle and the rectangle inside the circle!

Build the Slot (draw and constrain a rectangle) – then Pocket it build a ‘Rectangular’ Array with 5x2 elements

After Getting the “Correct” Rectangular Pattern – play around with parameters and see the effect – but be careful – save your part before embarking on this trip!!!
