Extruding two concentric circles separately when sketched on a part face
Often when making bolted connections between two parts, I like to have one sketch that defines the tap drill and clearance hole diameter. I then will extrude the two different circles in separate features so that the tap drill is on one part, and the clearance hole on the other. I've done this in NX my whole career. Trying…

I have a couple of Featurescript features and want to be able to add them to my toolbar. Rather than creating multiple files, I tried creating multiple feature studios in an Onshape model, each with a separate feature. My thinking is that I could organize all my featurescripts in one place, and version them from there.…

Boolean Union operation to preserve holes from both tools
My first time trying this. I have two parts which are essentially flat plates (made from 3D scans of a transmission face and a transfer case face). I initially tried to insert both parts into an assembly and revolute mate them on a common center hole. But my CAM slicer didn't see them as a manifold so wouldn't slice them.…
