Angle, Symmetric, FIllet practice

Set document to MM

Step 1) Make a circle, centered at origin with a diameter of 30. Then create a circle with a diameter of 20 to its right.

Step 2) Connect the 2 circles with 2 lines coincident on to both circles. You should see the highlighted constraints when you mouseover either of them:

Step 3) Dimention the angle between the 2 lines to be 12 degrees. Make sure it’s the ANGLE , not the distance. If you’re not sure how to do that, watch this short animation.

Step 4) Create a construction line connecting centers, then make the two lines symmetric to that line:

Step 5) Add the 2 dimensions shown . The shape should now be fully defined (all black)

Step 6) Extrude the middle part by 15 . Symmetric extrude and then add a 1 MM Fillet:

Step 7) Extrude th e2 circle by 30 MM (no pic. You should be able to do this on your own)

How to Dimension an angle

To dimension and angle in onShape, you click on each side after the dimension tool

Lines and Angles and Symmetric Extrude

Step 1) Open up a new document.

Step 2) Create a line of length 2 from the origin and line of length 3 from the origin; something like . Their exact angle doesn’t matter, just something like :

Step 3) Create a 45 degree angle between the 2 line segments:

Step 4) Connect the end points with a tangent arc:

Step 5) Dimension the center of that arc with the point of top line as shown:

Step 6) Create an inscribed circle as shown :

Step 7) Create a symmetric extrude

Step 8) Finished product. Notice how the symmetric extrude goes up and goes down:

Advanced Parts Design Tips I

Step 1)

lines should be larger on right side

Step 2) Make the blue lines symmetric to the construction line

Step 3) Click on the top line and construction and dimension the 1.5 degree angle

Step 4) dimension the 2 left side points to 1.5

Step 5) Resulting picture :

Extrude with Offset

Step 1) Create a rectangle centered at the origin with a height of 20 and width of 30:

Step 2) add an arc as shown. Make sure it’s dimensioned :

Step 3) Now the bottom:

Step 4) Extrude the shape by 25MM:

Step 5) un-hide sketch 1

Step 6)

Go into sketch 1 and create 2 MM offset on the top arc and on the bottom arc, then connect their endspoints with lines :

Step 7)

Final Halloween OnShape

Do Your best to draw this shape. You have the whole period to work on this.

We will work on the parts studio again on Monday.

Some Examples:

Halloween – Pick a Icon

Use the spline tool to draw 1 shape from here.

Extra credit if you draw 2 shapes. To get extra credit, these must be drawn well!

Draw Ghost shape for halloween

Use the Spline tool to make a picture of a ghost

This is worth 5 points. You can see examples of grades a

3 out of 5

4 out of 5

5 out of 5

Or you can do a comparable one

Below is what some students have already done :

bat shape- on shape

Step 1) Use the Spline tool to create a bat shape. The more complex the shape, the more the points.

Picture 1 : 4/5

Picture 2 : 5 out o 5

You can also pick a more complicted or different picture

Do an extrude on it.
