In this video, you will extrude the abacus which will ultimately become the …top most portion of the column and then you will sweep a profile creating a …transition between the abacus and the volutes, open the column 3 project file …and go into the top view by clicking on the view cube Rotate the plan if …necessary, and zoom into the sketch. This is the abacus this top square …object, and then this is the transition between the abacus and the volutes below.…
Go to the Layers panel, open the Layer Drop Down, turn off layer 1 and set layer …3 current. Then draw a rectangle, starting over here …at this corner point. Then hold down shift and right-click and …choose nearest snap to a point that's on this central axis point about like this …to represent this half-portion of the abacus.…
Then draw a temporary line down from the mid-point, and then orbit by holding down …shift and dragging the mouse wheel, so that you can be sure of where you're …snapping in 3D. Click a point here that's perpendicular …
