EEnd, I did your method but used four pack and go's. It worked well. Thank you so much of my time has been saved!! [bigsmile] TheTick, didnt get to try your method but thank you aswell.

I have tried searching for this and could find similar external references problem but not this one... I have an assembly (Ass A) which has a skeleton part within it (Skeleton A). There are a bunch of other parts (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4.....). All the parts are defined within the...

Thanks, I will try that. When I import the model in my FEA package it is easier to assign thicknesses if they are seperate bodies rateher than speerate faces :)

I am new to surface modelling so any help on this would be great... I want to draw a sketch on a surface then split that surface using the sketch into separate surface bodies. I would like to be able to do this in one feature? I have tried using the split line feature which looks like it gives...

Hi guys, this is pretty simple but is not my field. I have a drum with a taught rope over it. The rope has tension, T and a wrap angle of theta degrees. It is a static problem. What is the distribution of force on the surface of the drum over the wrap angle theta, as a function of theta? The...

Thanks for the help. Its rework of a design and I didnt want to re make relations etc.

I have two sheetmetat bodies and I would like to join them using a mitre flange. I have defined the mitere flange using a sketch. At the moment I can only get the mitre flange to attach to one of the bodies. Thanks in advance, Chris.

Please look at thsi file upload : ) Not the one in my previous posthttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=8a11bae0-00d2-4019-9e80-833cf8e995ca&file=FRAME.SLDPRT

This may have been answered before but searching flat pattern and configuration yields no relevant results. I have a part file which is a frame, the frame is split into two bodies and there are 20 different sizes (A,B,C, D etc.) I want a drawing which has 20 different flat patterns...

Ok, I have found the solution and feel like a bit of a jerk. I had to heve the 'normal cut' button checked in the cut extrude. OOps :)

Here is screenshots of whats happening and the workaround. I cant use the workaround though as all my profiles are already drawn and I don't have the time to redraw them.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=2681d014-d3e9-4c2d-b275-fa4f29d41285&file=Two_different_methods.png

I have had a bug with the sheet metal feature of SW2011, SP0. I usually create sheet metal parts for door frames then do a 45° cut in the corners to create a mitre. When solidowkrs notices the 45° cut intersecting a faces normal to the sketch plane it jogs the cut, however for some reason it...

No, just one city in NZ, Christchurch. Its ok though as nobody was killed. Some old buildings are broken.

Thanks CorBlimeyLimey! Your solution worked well!

I would like to pattern the hole around the sketch line (highlighted blue). The sketch like is an offset of the outside edge. The curve driven pattern is not letting me do this I think as it says the curve must be composed of a single contour. It is important to select the curve as a whole and...

I tryed CorBlimeyLimeys method of using the Fully Define Sketch feature. It worked well and will help alot! Thanks for the help.

In my company I am often asked to take Autocad drawing of the cross section of extrusion profiles and convert them into library features for Solidowkrs weldments. The process I use is to Copy/Paste the drawing into a sketch then go through each of the lines and click relationships such as...

Thanks for checking, if anybody else knows how to dolve this it would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know if this is a problem with SW 2010 SP 4 or if it's just me? When I create a sheet metal part using the "Convert to Sheet Metal" tool I always get auto reliefs and even when I unchecked the button for auto reliefs they come back? Can someone with SP4 verify this, it's driving me insane!
