Copying profile in sketch

savinp.o16 — Sun, 17 Oct 2021 12:49:55 GMT

Good afternoon,

I would like to ask about copying a repeating profile when I work in a sketch mode. My goal was to create a cubic net, which is on a picture below:

The net is supposed to be along whole line which has thickness of 2 mm. I wanted to save my time and somehow copy this repeating profile along the baseline:

However, I didn't find any way how to perform that. Is there any method how can I do this copying process?

Thank you for your answers.

I would not duplicate work as you have done in your image.

Pattern of Faces, Features, Bodies or Components is more computationally efficient.

Note how many times you have repeated the 2mm and 18.15mm dimension.

For most efficient calculation - these dimensions should only appear once (example to follow in a few minutes).

Edit: See @g-andresen video. Variations on this can be done as needed.

One rectangle and two lines. Done with sketch!
