Rectangle Center with Extrude

Step 1) open any prior do now and delete the sketch and restart

Step 2) make sure that the workspace units are MM

Step 3) create a rectangle with its center point as the midpoint on the origin. The rectangle should be 30 by 20. See video below

Step 4)  Create a semicircle with a radius of 15  (use or or make a circle and cut half off with the scisoors tool

Step 5) Create an isosceles triangle like this (Dimensions do not have to be exactly like mine)

The remaining steps are up to your discretion

Part I . REVOLVE

Step 6) Create a line somewhere and revolve the shape around it

Part II) 2 Extrudes with your own shapews

Create a shape with multiple elements (maybe a circle and a rectangle) Create 2 extrudes with different heights like we did before

 

Screenshot and put in google classroom.

 

Do-Now Multiple Extrudes

 

Step 1) open up any of our prior documents that we are done with and delete the prior work

Step 2)  Create this sketch with these dimensions. The lines from the circle to the rectangle must be tangent to the circle.

Step 3) Extrude the smaller inside circle 50 mm:

50 MM extrude

Step 4) the outer circle and the rectangle should have a 25 MM extrude

25 MM extrude

Step 5)  The connecting shape is a 10 MM extrude

Step 6)  Create your own shape  and do a revolve

3d Day 2

Step 1) create a 5 sided

5 sided polygon

Step 2)  Create a line for the revolve

line for revolve

Step 3)   Make that line parallel to the line of the polygon  using the parallel constraint

parallel line for revolve

Step 4) Revolve the polygon over the line:

revolve 3

Step 5) That is a sideways look at the front. Change the 3-d angle and you can see this :

revolve 4

 

Step 5)  Create a rectangle and dimension it to 20×30 and use an extrude on it.

3-d First Forays

Step 1) Create a rectangle and dimension to 30 by 50 as shown

dimension recangle

Step 2)  Create your first extrude . Use 30 mm as shown in the video below:

first extrude

Step 3)  Let’s make  it a shell :

first shell

Step 4)  Now let’s try something different. Delete the shell and delete the extrude, then delete the sketch the start all over.

 

Step 5) Draw a circle and a line. Don’t worry to much about the dimensions. Just make it look close to this :

circle and line

Step 6)   Create a revolve using the line as the axis as shown in this video:first revolve

 

Step 7) Mess around with the 3-d shapes and do something else…make another revolve..or another extrude or one of the others. Submit a screenshot of this below the do now

 

Onshape Do Now Partial Circle

Step 1) Create a 30 mm horizontal line with its right endpoint on the origin.

dimension 30 mm line from origin

Step 2)  Add a point to the line, then use then use the midpoint constraint so that it is a midpoint.

add point then use midpoint costraint

Step 3) Make a 3 point arc starting at the midpoint and centered on the left end of the line segment:

make a 3 poin tarc starting at the midpoint

Step 4) Dimension radius to 15

dimension the arcs radius to 15

Step 5)  Create an inscribed hexagon using the polygon tool

inscribed hexago

Step 6)  Remove some parts of the hexagon using the cut tool:

Step 7) Make a vertical and a horizontal lines  as shown below. Note they are dimensioned.

vertical and horizontal lines

 

Step 8)

When done, paste a screenshot in the google doc, then go here 

 

Onshape Practice- Disappearing Mirror Line

 

 

Step 1) Make sure you’re workspace units are millimeters

Step 2) Create a 3 point arc. Dimensioned to a radiu of 30, then add a vertical line:

3 point arc w line

 

Step 3) Dimension the vertical line:

dimensioned-line

 

Step 4) Use the spline tool to create this :

Step 5)  Add 2 circles and dimension both of them to 12 (smaller ) and 50 (outer) as shown below:

2 circles-dimensioned

 

Step 6) Select the cut tool

Step 7) remove the indicated region:

Step 8) Select the mirror icon and the mirror line indicated:

mirror line selection 0

Step 9) Reflect everything!

Step 10) Use the scissor tool to delete the mirror line.

Step 11) Add 4 shapes of your choosing (line, rectangle, circle etc). Make Sure that all of the shapes are dimensioned. Submity your screenshot in google classroom assignment.

Hexagon in onshpae

 

Step 1) Use the polygon tool to make a pentagon (5 sides)

Step 2) Dimension the side to 25

dimension pentagon

 

Step 3)  Add a point then use the midpoint constraint on it

point then midpoint

Step 4) Draw a construction line to the midpoint

Step 5)  Use the cut tool to remove half the polygon

Step 3)  Circumscribe circle that is dimensioned to 42

Final result:

Complex Shape 1 with Arcs and Constraints

  1. Use the front plane and the make a 3 point arc centered at the origin 3 point arc
  2.  Picture:screenshot.1
  3.  Use the dimension tool   to set the radius to 20 mm : dimension the arc
  4. Resulting shape : screenshot.2
  5.  create 2 lines that are attached to the circle and that meet at a point outside the circle. Dimensions don’t matter, yet, for these. Your document should look similar to (does not have to be exact
  6. : two secant lines
  7.  Use the Tangent tool to make both lines tangent . You must select both the circle and the line as shown below:2 tangents
  8.   Create a construction line from the end points of the arc:

    construction line-diameter

    Click to enlarge image

  9. Create a Rectangle, as shown in the video below. Watch the end carefully for how to make the points coincident. Your interconnected shape should move as shown below:rectnagle w coincident points
  10.  Use the Dimension tool to make sure that the height of the rect is 65 MM :

  11. Add a midpoint to the bottom of the rectangle:Click to enlarge
  12. Make a Circle centered at that midpointbottom center
  13. Dimension the bottom circle so that its diameter is 35 : dimension bottom circle
  14.  As you can see only the top tangent line is blue. So that’s the last item to dimension! Dimension it to 42 :
  15. top is 42
  16. Use the trim tool to remove the top half of the circle and its diameter line:trim interior
  17. Now your turn. In the same document. Create a complex separate shape. This shape should include a minimum of 5 simple shapes. 1 of the shapes must be an arc or a semicircle. All of the shapes must be dimensioned.

Constraints Additional Practice

 

Step 1)  Create a new sketch on the front plane. There should only be 1 sketch that you use

Step 2)  Create a circle and then use the “coincident ” button to center it on the origin by clicking on the origin, the center of the circle :

center circle with coincident

 

Step 3) make its radius 15 MM by using the dimension tool

dimension circle with button

Here’s what your document should now look like :

15 mm circle

Step 4)  Do the same thing with a second circle . Make its radius 30

Picture: 30 mm circle

Step 5) Make a line that touches the circle, anywhere. Like the picture below:

secant line

 

 

Step 5) Find the “tangent line”  constraint (this might be a dropdown)tangent line

 

Step 6) Here’s how you create a tangent line.

Click the circle , click the line you made, then press “tangent line ”

 

how to make tangent line

Step 7)  Make a construction line from the tangent line to the bottom

construction line

 

Step  8) Make a second tangent line as shown:

tangent line 2

 

Step 8) Dimension both tangent lines so that they are 60 MM each

 

Step 9) Add a second shape that is dimensioned.
