Having issues with making jigs using boolean and hollow parts
Hi, I’m currently working on creating various jigs for parts that we manufacture. This works well for solid parts using Boolean operations, but I would like to achieve the same result with hollow parts, as shown in the picture. Is there a way to create only the imprint of the outer or inner surface of a hollow part, rather…
lofting two pipes together
I've used the pipe custom feature to create two different diameter pipes and am trying to connect them using a loft. While I can use edges to do a surface loft, I can't use the end faces of the pipe to do a solid loft. I get an error saying you can't use faces/regions with inner loops. Is there a way around this? Most of…
Error when attempting to loft
I've been trying to loft this hollow extrusion here but it says that it's a loop and I can't loft on it. The thing is, I previously lofted off of a hollow extrusion. I'm confused.
Hollowing out a convoluted cylinder
Was hollowing out this lens barrel, making progress. But for some reason, I can't seem to get the last bit (towards the right-hand side of the images below). Any ideas? Here it is looking up the barrel. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/b4b4261f4f1c26e011a77dbf/w/1b735737fb7eeb1a46eac899/e/aad0b319e095bf2cff3162c5
Hollow blue thread
Just wondering why this thread I made is blue, unlike the rest of the object. And why it doesn't have a solid face that I can sketch on for the final extrusion.
