3D Exercise 67

Exercise 67
Exercise 67

In this CAD tutorial we'll use the features: 


1. Extrude

Definition: The primary tool for turning 2D sketches into 3D volume. How it works: You select a closed sketch profile and pull it into 3D space.

  • New Body: Creates a solid block.

  • Cut: Removes material.

  • Join: Fuses new material to existing material. Best for: Creating the base shape of your design. Almost every design starts with an Extrude.


2. Fillet

Definition: Rounds off the sharp edges of a solid body. How it works: It replaces a sharp corner with a smooth arc tangent to the surfaces. Best for:

  • Ergonomics: Making parts safe and comfortable to hold.

  • Strength: Sharp inside corners are where parts crack. Fillets distribute stress.

  • Aesthetics: Making a blocky design look finished.


3. Shell

Definition: Hollows out a solid body, leaving thin walls. How it works: You take a solid block, select the face you want to "open" (like the top of a box), and define a wall thickness (e.g., 2mm). Fusion removes the interior material automatically. Best for: Instantly creating containers, cups, electronic housings, or vases without having to model the internal cavity manually.



All dimensions are in mm/g/s/ISO
