Removing a particular section or slicing on a imported project

jimmyfos — Tue, 26 Nov 2019 18:12:22 GMT

Hey Guys, super new to this. Ive imported an existing DWG file to edit. I need to make the design 12.7mm thinner from the existing depth but from a certain point to point. how would I go about doing so? I took a screenshot (shown below).. I added the blue bar striking across (in edit) that signifies where I want to do my cut (1/2' or 12.7mm).. thanks!

Just checking before i move this post - but are you doing this in AutoCAD or Fusion 360?

I'm sure its possible but we need the file and some more pictures of what you want to remove.

This can be done in either AutoCAD or in Fusion.

Attach either your AutoCAD *.dwg file or File>Export and then Attach your *.f3d file here for detailed instructions.
