changing material size after assembled

[dieselguy65]

i have been racking my brain for day, trying to figure out an easy way to change the size of 28 pieces of tubing in an assembly, to be 3x3 inches from what they currently are.

im attached the design, its fairly complex but not to bad.

i am sure there were better ways to do it to begin with, but i am learning still.

i am attaching a link to the downloadable file.

any suggestions on how to change the external dimensions of thos 28 pieces, the ones running from the bottom of the assembly, up to the top center beam, thanks for any help.

Yep, but this design would be so much easier to do if you would not have used external components.

I'll see if I can create a little screencast later.

thanks.

 i am starting to figure that out.

my thinking before was draw each component, then assemble them together to make a new part.

now, i am thinking i should have somehow drawn each component all in the same workspace.

still have figured out how to get those pieces in there.

thinking i will start a new project, and try drawing everything in one workspace.

see how that goes.

thanks. brian

Make sure to fully define all of your sketches.

well, this is what i came up with.

started from scratch, and tried to draw everything in place.

any pointers or advice is much appreciated.

i dont normally use fusion for this type thing.

its kind of a pet project.

not even sure its the best software for this, but i am trying to make it work.

thanks, brian
