Re: rotate 2 rings into 1 and fill the gap?

just grey out the icon that should be selected to set the revolving axis and then you will get a picture of the weird bug, but i already managed to fix that myself by pressing the sketch view button etc... so i basically managed to get my Revolved 3d profile, but then noticed that the whole concept ...

Re: rotate 2 rings into 1 and fill the gap?

i can probably get community 24 then, but can the part even be reverse-engineered or edited in the app? i cant even seem to use any ctrl+z function after i have saved the file or completed some steps... i dont think i can ever finish it by looking at some random tutorials tho, because it even took m...

Re: rotate 2 rings into 1 and fill the gap?

that probably looks nice, but how is it all done in the app? the big bottom ring might also be the most annoying, because it might have to be more in the middle of the hole on the top(the fused together/fill part), so i wonder if that could also be modified somewhat easily or not...

Re: rotate 2 rings into 1 and fill the gap?

ok, but i mean that when you add more features, it seems to change the whole dynamics of the "2 rings" aka the model itself... https://www.upload.ee/image/17626183/rings2.jpg so it would need to be something like that, while the bottom hole pattern area even needs to have it's own special ...

Re: rotate 2 rings into 1 and fill the gap?

omg... now i probably also finally figured out why the filled in area looks so weird? i think that the model described on the pictures actually rotates the 0,5 ring around and the 1 full ring stays in place, but i actually would need the full ring to rotate and the "0,5" ring also needs to...

Re: rotate 2 rings into 1 and fill the gap?

i already fixed it, but the main issue probably is that if you dont press the Revolve button right before drawing the sketch, then you have to do some steps manually/in different order (which is not explained in any video at all, aka only creates lots of unnecessary confusion)

well, it looks kinda similar, but if you flip your 2nd picture vertically, then you can see that the fill angle is not that good, because it just covers the whole enclosed area really weirdly, so i'm not even sure what is going on in there or how to fix/remodel that lol (on my theory pic the left fi...

yes, something like that, but how do you even model something like this and then also fill in all of those gaps and add more angles, etc? i probably still cant draw the thing itself, but the proportions+angles and theory should look something like this: https://www.upload.ee/image/17610146/cover1.jp...
