Potting

Just wondering how people were showing things like potting in an assembly drawing? If you could send an example that would be great!

Thx

Kev

You could get that by adding a workplane and offset surface and Sculpt.
Could be done as multi-body and pushed out to parts or use Derived Component (don't need to create offset zero surfaces).

Could just be a virtual part too if you don't need to actually show specifics about its location in the drawing. Or even just a note on the drawing.. "Fill with ACME potting goop"
