Thanks, that was a great tutorial, I did not know about the Bridging Curve tool. As other commenters have done, I too tried it with the loft tool and it worked.

Thanks for this interesting video! The twisted section could be accomplished much easier with the loft tool using the "connections" option. In the connection option it's enough to select two corresponding opposite vertices of the the end-surfaces and it's all done.

@@cademist my only issue is the chamfer part, somehow one of the round ends turns red, and I can't do it as you did, it's for sure my fault, but I didn't manage lol I will keep watching your videos, it's perfect for noobs like me, your speed it just perfect!

Really well made tutorial. There are not so many channels that explain more advanced onshape tools in simple words. Get a better mic and perhaps use some AI audio enhancement (works wonders to improve quality) and you are one of the best onshape explainers!

@cademist 6 ай бұрын

Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you liked the video. Now about sound, I actually got a question in regards to "AI audio enhancement". What tools are there, and what do they do? And...what's wrong with the audio in the video?

@OmikronPsy 6 ай бұрын

@@cademist Adobe Podcast enhance is a free (with dayly limit) tool that makes audio sound much better even without a professional setup. Perhaps give it a try and see if you hear an improvement. I found the audio lacks clarity and contrast. It is just not as crisp as the studio quality that big channels provide.

Draw a surface instead of the solid modeling. then use a loft of two surface body edges and thicken the whole surface after knitting.

how about a tube like this so a vertical coin drop - and at the bottom it rotates to have the face of the coin rolling at 45d to the right to make a coin sorter thanks for the video

@baddonkeyNL Ай бұрын

Okay i learned some new things for wich i thank you, but. In this case why not use a loft? With a loft you'll be done in 3 clicks

@cademist Ай бұрын

You are absolutely right-the loft command is a great way of doing this!

@nilton61 7 ай бұрын

This is how i would do it: use the slot command in the sketch to simplify the constraints. Connect the tangent points with a line and trim off the arc. Use only one bridging curve as a guide when lofting the square surfaces normal to profile

Not to knock your way, it works, but I would have used a loft in "add" (normal to both profiles) with one bridging curve (tangent) as a guide.

Great video...I am a beginner and have found this video very helpful. I'm having a difficult time adding the chamfer. For some reason it is not capturing all the edges/faces that you have in your video (I can't capture "Edge of Enclose 1"). Without seeing my model would there be any way for you to offer a suggestion as to what I need to adjust? Thank you.

@cademist 6 ай бұрын

Thanks! About that chamfer-there is a small checkbox, next to it it says: "tangent propagation", maybe you got that unchecked?
