Michael Pascoe, Cache River Mill.
Description:
This custom feature extrudes your
sketch into multiple layers.
Prerequisites:
A single sketch containing 3 or more fully enclosed shapes.
Notes:
The order that you draw the faces will
be the order that they are extruded.
Choose the layer thickness.
Select a center face.
Select the outer face as a boundary.
Application:
This feature is most useful when you need to stack multiple layers of plywood to create the base for a glass top river table.
Re: "Face Curves" in Featurescript?
Thanks, Onshape team, for making this available! I made a Face Curves feature with it here: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/a8fffe63f92001db50a75db9/v/6806a86ca45e517dd6fde290/e/193257f65ba4c932585edbb6
Re: How can I check in FeatureScript to see if a variable (defined in a configuration) exists?
What you can do is use
If the variable wasn't defined, the result will be
[1]: onsha.pe/FsDoc/library.html#getVariable-Context-string
[2]: onsha.pe/FsDoc/exceptions.html
getVariable [1] inside a try expression [2].If the variable wasn't defined, the result will be
undefined (the value, not the behaviour)[1]: onsha.pe/FsDoc/library.html#getVariable-Context-string
[2]: onsha.pe/FsDoc/exceptions.html

Re: What is the easiest/fastest way to downscale a part (Sheet Metal)
Here is a feature I just made to do exactly that (it recalculates all the ratios):

Re: Variable for quantity of pattern
I believe this functionality just isn't supported for sketch patterns at the moment.

Re: Tangent Mate - edge and plane - when I animate the motion, the whole model displaces
Your problem is simple: you need to fix the Chassis in space so that it doesn't move around when the other parts are animating.
I used a Fastened mate between the bottom face of the Chassis and the Origin.
You could also just Fix (Right-click on the Chassis component and select Fix), but a Mate will generally be more robust.
