Make part parametric

Anonymous — Wed, 28 Sep 2016 21:38:55 GMT

Hi. I need to make this part so that the length doesn't change no matter what number i change it to.

I'm talking about the walls so to speak with the blue mark, so they dont't change and stay the same.

As you can see when I changed the length to 120mm it changed.

So I need to make some sort of equation, can't solve it though. advice?

Can you attach the *.ipt file here?

Yes sure. I guess you can base the model on different workplanes with offset and extrude sketches after that. then mirroring. So then it doesnt need any equation to change the length of the parameter. But I didnt get it to work.

This will do. Go to Parameters and change Length to more than 92 mm.

For exploring, do a right-click to Extrusion7 and move to properties.
