Re: Revolved Cut Issue
What does the sketch represent? Is it a section view thru a cut at that position like shown in red? If so then you could do the revolve by developing the section in the blue. image.png Or do you want something like this where it's more of a swept path which can't be done with a revolve? image.png I...

Re: Revolved Cut Issue
Yes, but it appears that you still used an axis located on the same plane as the sketch you revolved it around. In my picture, the sketch of the square that you see (the thing I want to revolve cut with) is NOT a bisecting plane, meaning that the central axis of the part (the construction line you s...

Re: Revolved Cut Issue
Yes, as I stated, the sketch plane does not bisect the part. The problem is that the sketch that I need to revolve cut is not normal to the surface of the cylinder. I'm having trouble figuring out how to make this cut happen given that design requirement.

Re: Derived Median Plane
That is what I want to do, except I'm trying to do it in the MBD format.

Derived Median Plane
Hi all. I am trying to figure out how to add a flatness tolerance to a thin plate so I can establish a derived median plane flatness tolerance in MBD. Solidworks will not let me do this. I keep trying to attach the GD&T feature control frame to the thickness tolerance but it will not let me. It ...
