Help with Surfacing |
|
|
Hi Guys,
I usually use SW for tool and die design (square blocks with lots of
holes). A customer wants a riser designed for his chopper and I have
tried numerous surfacing techniques to no avail. I have only had the
basic SW training and the sheet-metal training.
If someone would be interested in making a few suggestions as to how I
can model this riser so that the radii are tangent with the top and
bottom surface I would be so grateful....
I have uploaded the files to http://www.ttmdesign.com
Thanks in advance,
CC

can you be more specific about what you are trying to acheive? Maybe a
marked up image or scanned hand sketch or a photo of a similar part?

Without knowing more about what is blending to what and why I can only
offer workarounds to get it to blend cleaner from the corner revolve, so
here's an example of trying to accomplish this...

CC,
I e-mailed you your part after some modifications I made to it. take a look
at it and tell me what you think.
basically I changed your side loft into two side lofts with tangency
relation to the surrounding faces by edge selection + I changed the rounded
corner from 150 deg to 133.68 deg in the revolve feature.
cheers,
Gil Alsberg
