The component named Fold-Out is joined to the drill index Container component. There should be a bit of clearance on either side of the Fold-Out, but when I joined them, the Fold-Out slammed against the container wall so that all the clearance is on one side. Obviously, in the real world it doesn't affect the way it works. But I want to draw it right. I suppose there is some method for holding it back just a bit but I couldn't find anything on it. I attached the file and also attached some photos of the 3D print. I know this is child's play for most of you, but I really get a kick out of making things that actually have a purpose. The tabs on the hinge pegs are just there so I can play around with it. They'll ultimately be replaced with pegs that are flush.</P><P>Any help will be appreciated.</P> Sun, 19 May 2024 19:15:00 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/a-joint-issue/m-p/12783570#M19385 William_Dec_45 2024-05-19T19:15:00Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/a-joint-issue/m-p/12783576#M19386 <P>You want to use Joint Offsets which are a part of every Joint.&nbsp; The video will show you how to use it.&nbsp; I did not place it in the video but I think you need to use a Revolute Joint in your case so the drill holder will fold out.&nbsp; I added this to your model, which is attached.&nbsp; I also added Joint Limits to it to manage how it folds out.&nbsp; I will create another video on this for you.<BR /><div class="lia-vid-container video-embed-center"><div id="lia-vid-6353240165112w400h218r669" class="lia-video-brightcove-player-container"><video-js data-video-id="6353240165112" data-account="6057940548001" data-player="default" data-embed="default" class="vjs-fluid" controls="" data-application-id="" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;"></video-js></div><script src="https://players.brightcove.net/6057940548001/default_default/index.min.js"></script><script>(function() { var wrapper = document.getElementById('lia-vid-6353240165112w400h218r669'); var videoEl = wrapper ? wrapper.querySelector('video-js') : null; if (videoEl) { if (window.videojs) { window.videojs(videoEl).ready(function() { this.on('loadedmetadata', function() { this.el().querySelectorAll('.vjs-load-progress div[data-start]').forEach(function(bar) { bar.setAttribute('role', 'presentation'); bar.setAttribute('aria-hidden', 'true'); }); }); }); } }})();</script><a class="video-embed-link" href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/video/gallerypage/video-id/6353240165112">(view in My Videos)</a></div></P> Sun, 19 May 2024 19:24:56 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/a-joint-issue/m-p/12783576#M19386 jhackney1972 2024-05-19T19:24:56Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/a-joint-issue/m-p/12783581#M19387 <P>Here is the video on changing your Rigid Joint to a Revolute Joint and adding limits of rotation to it.&nbsp; You already have the model with this that I posted in the last reply.<BR /><div class="lia-vid-container video-embed-center"><div id="lia-vid-6353241166112w400h218r852" class="lia-video-brightcove-player-container"><video-js data-video-id="6353241166112" data-account="6057940548001" data-player="default" data-embed="default" class="vjs-fluid" controls="" data-application-id="" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;"></video-js></div><script src="https://players.brightcove.net/6057940548001/default_default/index.min.js"></script><script>(function() { var wrapper = document.getElementById('lia-vid-6353241166112w400h218r852'); var videoEl = wrapper ? wrapper.querySelector('video-js') : null; if (videoEl) { if (window.videojs) { window.videojs(videoEl).ready(function() { this.on('loadedmetadata', function() { this.el().querySelectorAll('.vjs-load-progress div[data-start]').forEach(function(bar) { bar.setAttribute('role', 'presentation'); bar.setAttribute('aria-hidden', 'true'); }); }); }); } }})();</script><a class="video-embed-link" href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/video/gallerypage/video-id/6353241166112">(view in My Videos)</a></div></P> Mon, 20 May 2024 12:52:48 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/a-joint-issue/m-p/12783581#M19387 jhackney1972 2024-05-20T12:52:48Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/a-joint-issue/m-p/12783664#M19388 Oh, I love that, joint offset!
