Chamfer in other direction

[patrik_sacek]

Hello everyone,

I’m having trouble applying a 15-degree chamfer to the sketch on my first model (attached). I’m trying to achieve the same chamfer effect as shown in the second model (which I’m using as a reference).

Could anyone guide me on how to correctly apply the chamfer on the first model so it matches the second one?

I’ve attached both models for reference. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hello and welcome.  I've moved your post to this forum where you will likely get more advice.  Your files did not attach to your post, but from your images it looks to me like what you are doing may require a Loft operation.  If you are able to attach the file here, some of our Fusion experts may be able to take a look at it and give you some ideas.  Good luck!

Maybe create a sketch on the solid surface by projecting the surface and offsetting that by some amount ( hard to say without model). Then extrude cyclist sketch to surface of original solid with a 15 degree taper and join. Then use surface offset sketch to extrude upwards, with or without taper, to trim cyclist solid to perimeter of original solid.

Hi Patrik,

Another workflow to consider is to leverage Loft in this case. First, create a downward offset workplane from the top face (the required distance depends on the chamfer width and the angle). Second, create an inward offset surface from the side faces (again the required distance depends on the width and the angle). You may need to extend the offset surface top edges. Next, split the faces using the workplane and the offset surface. Then create a Loft surface by selecting the split edges. Lastly, use the Loft surface to split the solid body to create the chamfer.

Please feel free to share the f3d file here. The forum experts can help take a closer look.

Many thanks!
