- [Voiceover] The next project is to model the fork crown.…That's this piece here.…It's going to bridge the head tube to the forks,…so it's going to start with one circle…and it's gonna separate into two different elements…that hold the forks going around the front tire.…Let's isolate this layer…showing the fork,…and let's go ahead and create a new layer…called 3D fork crown.…
Turn it on, set it current,…and color it red.…Change the UCS to align with the object right here,…then change the UCS again…and rotate it around the x-axis 90 degrees.…Draw a circle right here.…Draw another one down here.…So we have this situation.…Copy this circle over 10 millimeters,…or one centimeter,…do the same thing over here.…
Copy it up one centimeter.…Then move these two circles up 50 millimeters,…or five centimeters up.…I'm planning to have the forks be 10 centimeters apart,…so I'm moving this up 50 millimeters,…or five centimeters up.…The approach I'm going to take…is to model half of the fork crown…and then mirror it to the other side.…
