Create joint with only one pin

Zak · January 2022

Hi every one,

I'm designing a lamp as you can check on the following documment :

I want to create joints between all the pieces of my working in a way that I'll be able to regroupe them once they are cutted.
So I need a joint with only one pin open on one side (see pictures below)

I'm using Laser Joint feature, but I'm not able to configure it that way. Could you please advice ?

what Laser joint is generating :

There are some other joint features that might work. Here's an example using Lap Joint. Does that do what you want?

Hi Evan_Reese, thanks for the solution you proposed.

thanks for your reply.
it seems that feature LapJoint works only when two bodies are intersecting once.
I tried, but it dosn't work correctly.
any other suggestions ?
