Learn how to position holes.
- [Man] There are two basic ways to use the Hole Wizard.…Number one is by choosing a flat plane,…and then adding holes to that plane,…or we can operate in 3D space.…If you're operating in 3D you can…place holes on any surface in 3D.…Now let me show you, how that works.…Firs thing's first, come over here to features,…click on the Hole Wizard,…let's go ahead and just choose something like a tapped hole.…So over here I'm going to choose a straight tap.…Come down here to a bottom-tapped hole,…and actually I'm going to switch…over here to the inches system.…
Click over here on inch, here it is.…And the size is going to be 1/4 inch.…So let's use 1/4-20, all right,…and instead of through all I'm just going to make it blind,…1/2 inch deep looks good, you have to…drill a little bit deeper so you can tap the hole.…All that looks great.…Down here I'm going to add the thread callout,…which looks fine.…Alright, now we're ready to start placing our holes.…So go over here to positions,…and notice because I didn't preselect a face,…

10/31/2017First, see how to create two-dimensional sketches that become the foundation for 3D objects. Next, look at extruding and revolving 3D features; creating complex objects using the Sweep, Loft, and Surface tools; and modifying parts. Learn how to create uniform holes with the Hole Wizard, and explore more advanced modeling techniques using equations, mirroring, and pattern tools. Then review best practices for putting parts together in assemblies and building robust structures. The course wraps up tips for creating detailed drawings that relate the final parts and assemblies to a manufacturer, complete with an itemized bill of materials and drawing notes.
