- [Instructor] At this point, the drivetrain is complete and we need to consider how the disc brake will work. And if you orbit around, you can see that there's a sketch for a caliper over here. So let's go ahead and isolate the layers related to that information. I'll go to Layer Isolate and I'll isolate these layers and I'll also isolate this yellow 3D object. And now, we can see this condition a little bit more readily. I'll zoom in here and let's make a new layer. I'll come over to the Layer Properties Manager, make a new layer called dash Calipers, and I will turn that on, set it current, give it the color green, and then type ucs Enter, use the object option, and click on this object, and then draw a rectangle from this corner to the opposite corner over here. And then I'm going to extrude that as a solid in this direction. Let's make it seven millimeters wide. Erase the defining objects, yes. So we have a kind of bridge which will be the caliper itself and that will ultimately…
