Isometric Sketches - Advanced Planes 1 of 10

  • Figure 1-1 Descriptive Geometry Problem 8-14
  • In this SolidWorks training I will demonstrate how to create a reference plane based on a compound angle, or a plane based on 3 points
  • Create a new part
  • sketch on the front plane
  • create a rectangle position at the origin
  • Smart Dimension height 2.5 inches and width 1.75 inches
  • close the sketch
  • Extrude the feature 1.25 inches thick
  • Now, to see how to create a reference geometry plane from the ribbon
  • Solidworks allows us to select up to 3 references for the plane
  • We will attempt to select 3 points, the two corners are easy, but unable to select a point on an edge or line
  • So, lets try again but this time we will first create a construction line
  • Dimension 0.75 inches
  • finish sketch
  • Reference Geometry
  • select the construction line or could select the two endpoints to create the compound angle plane
  • Our last step is to cut everything out above the plane using
  • Insert → Cut → With Surface… (I know that is confusing it doesn't say plane)
  • Change the direction of the cut
  • And successfully created a part using a plane at a compound angle
  • Thank you for watching

Inventor

  • Create a new part
  • sketch on the front XY plane
  • create a rectangle position at the origin
  • Smart Dimension width 1.75 and height 2.5 inches
  • finish the sketch
  • Extrude the feature 1.25 inches thick
  • New sketch on front XY face
  • line → construction
  • dimension 0.75
  • Constrain → Coincident Constraint
  • now sketch should be Fully Constrained
  • On the Ribbon → 3D Model tab → Plane → Three Points
  • New sketch on compound angle workplane
  • Project Geometry → Project Cut Edges
  • Finish sketch
  • Extrude with cut option
  • turn off visibility of workplane
  • turn off visibility of sketch
  • And successfully created a part using a plane at a compound angle
  • Thank you for watching
