Need to provide support for cylinders

spencer_arnoldspencer_arnold Member Posts: 10

I have 3 cylinders and I want to provide extra support in the form of a rib or gusset between them. But neither of these seems to want to draw. What terminology should I be using to describe this? (See attached draft).

    best to just sketch the section of the rib and extrude it symmetric) and then unite it to the cylinders.

    Hey Spencer. The terminology you used is understood. This document demonstrates how to create the rib(s). - Scotty
