So, the way I'm going to do that is generate some flange surfaces and going to link everything back to those parameters. I'm going to start out with inserting another geoset. Again, this is for organizational purposes, this isn't necessary, but it's really nice to make sure you have everything organized nice and clean like. So, this is just B-side. Now that I have my geoset in place, I'm going to go ahead and create a boundary. I try not to use the edges off of a surface, a boundary representations. So, by creating a boundary on the actual surface I don't have to worry about if I have a new edge. The boundary is just a new feature that the system's going to use to always drive the flange off of. It just creates a little bit more stability in the model. Next, I'm going to go ahead and generate a sweep. That…
