Best way to pattern Honeycomb part
Hello, I'm looking for the best way to make a Honeycomb wall. unfortunately my part has some "complex" geometry so I can't seem to get the fill pattern tool to work. I started by created a single cell and then orignally did multiple linear patterns to form the wall. I have tried this 2 difference ways one taking 8.91…

Improve surface of complex shape
I try to create the head of a fantasy panda. The result is not as smooth as I wanted it to be. So I'm asking you if you recognize mistakes or space for improvement. For that I'd like you to quickly guide you through my process: I started with this sketch. The head consists of two splines. I made sure the had the same angle…

drawing is printing a lot smaller than object measures in onshape
I apologize, I'm new at this, so I am still learning. I didn't want to ask for help since I need to know this, but I've tried for the past 3 days and I'm getting no where. I get everything created in Onshape, export it to an STL file, and open it in Bambu Studio. When I go to print it, it is less than half the indicated…

skArc/Constraint syntax and radius calculation error
Hi! So I'm trying to create a custom feature and i've found a problem where i try to create an arc using 'skArc' and later define it using 'skConstraint' with '"constraintType" : ConstraintType.RADIUS' but while the original points defined in "start" and "end" are correct in the part studio the "mid" point and therefore…

Can't figure out CANNOT_RESOLVE_ENTITIES from opBoolean
I've been going through the FeatureScript Fundamentals course in the learning system, and I'm on the final exercise. I'm getting a CANNOT_RESOLVE_ENTITIES from a opBoolean call, and I can't figure out what going wrong. I've more than triple checked my code against what's provided in the instructions, and I've added debug…

how to fix issue when drafting with extrude remove
i'm trying to remove solid extrude my initials from a part, with it drafted inward, but it won't work, despite it working with the exact same setup, but different parts, on 5 previous documents. my initials were the exact same height on all 6 documents, and they all have plenty of extra room to extrude, yet it keeps giving…

Why isn't the coincident constraint working right?
Applied a coincident constraint from this construction line to a spline, yet it created this micro gap which I didn't notice until I really looked. This later caused issues for me when I went to make a projected curve and the shape not filling in properly as its not an enclosed loop. The sketch is entirely fixed, no points…

How can I add a draft angle to this complex shape?
Hi, I'm very, very new to CAD. I'm a chocolate maker trying to design my own tools for vacuum formed chocolate molds. Right now, I'm struggling to add draft angles to my shapes. I finally figured out how to import the image, trace it and extrude it, but following the advice from the AI (to copy the sketch, enlarge it and…

Sweeping Along a Cylinder (Normal to the Surface)
Hi, I would like to sweep a slot on a cylinder that will be CNC'ed. The slot needs to be normal to the cylindrical surface as it wraps around it. I tried sweep and wrap and neither wrap normal to the surface. Closest example of what I need - Imagine as you turn the grey part, the grooves mate with the tabs on the outlet.…

Sweep angle to face
Good day everyone, I am novice designer and have been trying to learn Onshape since I graduated from undergrad. My first self project was to recreate a simple distillation apparatus. However I am having some issue, trying to create the condenser part. The condenser should pierce through the cylinder until the inner wall.…

How to Make Threads on a Bolt?
Hello all! I am trying to create a tensile tester that has bolt-like ends. I've found some decent tutorials on how to create a bolt itself using the helix tool and a triangle sketch to create the thread, however my issue is that I'm not sure how they size the triangle to adjust for the diameter of the thread they want. I'm…

How can I face blend 3 surfaces?
I have been trying to make this corner more smoothed out, maybe following a similar curvature to the right wall which has a fillet and isn't linear. That didnt work with curves (or i did it wrong). Instead, I would like to "face blend" three surfaces, like pinching out the corner and making it smooth. Only one wall here is…
