Help – Why is there a gap in circle; Screenshots included
I used the grey object to create a circle, and trimmed it to form the arc. Why is there still a gap? Sorry if this is an obvious question, I'm quite new to this.
Two point generation for imported parts.
I want to do a two point generation system for imported parts in a featurescript I'm making and I previously did it like this if (definition.generationChoice == generationType.TWO) { opExtrude(context, id + "hexShaft", { "entities" : qSketchRegion(id + "sketchOne", true), "direction" : dir, "endBound" : BoundingType.BLIND,…
How to extrude imported parts with a featurescript
I am making a featurescript that generates some parts to make the CAD process faster for my FRC team and I'm not sure how to extrude an imported part. I want to make it so that you can change it's length based off a definition.length inputted earlier in the featurescript. This is my first time doing a featurescript so the…
How to extrude at an angle?
Apologies for asking another noob question! Was unable to find anything on YouTube so have turned here in an effort to solve my dilemma. I am looking to create a hook attached to the roof of the gap (as shown in the image). I experimented with the draft tool but couldn't quite manage anything. If it helps, here is the link…
How can I merge two faces to become rounded? (more details in description).
Hi all, I'm relatively new to onshape and am working on a project for a friend. It involves very precise measurements and tiny details and I have been trying to complete one of these key details but as of yet my efforts have borne no fruit. Essentially, I am trying to merge these two faces, creating a smooth, rounded,…
Trouble with getting a Airfoil to work properly
I am making a Airfoil for a plane I am making in a engineering class I am taking and I am having difficulties getting the airfoil to be all 1 part and having in generate properly in Prusa slicer. I can't get the wing to all be 1 part and have it not completely break its self when I set the printer setting in Prusa to…
How to add curved channels into parts
Hi everyone, I am still learning cad so apologies in advance if this is an obvious question. I am re-creating a part to mount a PCB and I am quite stumped as how these curved channels for zip-ties for cable strain relief are being added into the part. Could someone point me in the right direction on what I should be doing…
What is my student missing? This sketch will not define
Hello! New CAD teacher here, and I'm learning Onshape alongside my students this year. We're working through the Unit 2 Skate Deck, and in 2.5, I have several students stuck trying to define their sketches when the splines are added to the sides of the board. One student added splines, and the sketch remains defined, if he…
