Pill shaped detent using revolve feature

Mario_ZarlengoMario_Zarlengo Member Posts: 3 PRO

I created these detents (4) that are too deep. I have to keep the arc diameter dimension as it is which is preventing me from being able to make the detent shallower. They are currently .080" deep and I need them to be .030" deep. Can someone advise on how to make these detents shallower without modifying the arc diameter?

    Does one of these look like what you want?

    Hi Glen, yes, the one on the left is what I'm looking for. How were you able to make the detents shallower?

    You can change your sketch for the cutout or use the move face tool.

    It's a simple arc shape.
